When a substance gets heated, it expands as it's volume expands because of the increase in volume of each molecule, that is because of the increase in kinetic energy of electrons due to heating effect.

When water gets heated, and it's temperature reaches to it's boiling point i.e 100o , then the water at that temperature, due to extra expansion and the breakage of intra-molecular bonds the molecules are set free, leading to the formation of water vapour.

When water gets to boiling point some of it turns into steam.

What else can I help you with?
