there is a phase change that is water(liquid) is converted into ice now the question arrives that it is a pure substance or not? if its chemical composition is the same during the phase change then it is a pure substance otherwise not.

Solid water is what we call "ice", as gaseous water is what we call "steam".

H2O(s) = Ice

;)

Then, ice (solid water) is a pure substance, as steam or (liquid) water.

Water is a compound comprised of hydrogen and oxygen (H20). Water is a natural, but not a pure substance. Ice is the same as water in different states.
