If water is being split into hydrogen and oxygen then a change of state (phase change) will occur if the water is in liquid form and the hydrogen and oxygen are evolved as gases. If water vapor is being split, then obviously no change of state occurs. Conversely, solid water in the form of ice could be split into hydrogen and oxygen gas, also undergoing a phase change.

No, it's probably not a change of state because hydrogen and oxygen are both elements. If 2 oxygen and 1 hydrogen gets together, its forms a water molecule, which does change it's state of matter.
