Since it takes energy to turn a liquid into a gas, the reverse is true when going back to a liquid...so it's A

I thought that energy is released when it's gas to liquid...

Crap...I totally meant B.  

When going from a liquid to a gas, you have to add energy (so it absorbs it).  When going from a gas to a liquid, the energy is released.  Sorry for the confusion.
