they dont give same amt. of heat...latent heat of steam is also involved
liquid water is more massive

Depends upon how you view 'mass' as the atoms of liquid water are the same mass-weight as the atoms of steam, just that stream is usually at a higher temperature.

Water 'vapor' on the other hand, can be equivalent to liquid water for Heat, so in that case the atoms themselves are still the same 'mass' - meaning "weight".

If you go for density, or occupation of space by mass or weight or atoms, the water vapor will occupy a larger volume of space for the same amount of mass-weight (atoms) content then the smaller 'puddle of water' the liquid will make.

liquid water mass is larger when compared to steam although they release same amount of heat
R;-. the molecules in water are more closely bonded than that in the steam because the molecules in the water gain K.E and move as steam

lets see: one molecule of water reacts with an equivalent amount of antimatter releasing all of its energy as heat. A billion tons of steam are disturbed by the gravitatinal field of a passing asteroid, releasing heat energy of 1E-999 ergs. Which is more massive...
I guess I missed the part where you describe the mechanism for the energy change.

mass have not related to heat releasing , steam and liquid water because other factors such as specific heat is important.

the liquid water is more massive given that they release same amount of heat.
