No, totally independent
The amount of energy required to change from a liquid to a solid is called the heat of fusion. This energy is needed to disrupt the intermolecular forces holding the particles in a liquid state and rearrange them into a solid structure. It is also known as the latent heat of fusion.
Heat of fusion.
It is the amount of energy required to change 1kg of solid into a liquid with no temperature change.
a loss in energy cause the change from liquid to solid like-wise a rise in energy causes a change from solid to liquid.
The energy required to melt a substance. (Apex)
The amount of energy required to change a solid phase to a liquid phase is known as the heat of fusion. It is the amount of heat energy needed to overcome the intermolecular forces holding the solid molecules together and allow them to transition into a liquid state. This energy varies depending on the substance and is usually expressed in joules per gram (J/g).
The heat energy required to change a substance between solid & liquid at constant temperature is called the "latent heat of fusion". If the change is from solid to liquid the substance gains this energy. If the change is from liquid to solid the substance gives up this energy. The exact amount of latent heat of fusion is different for different substances.
cchemical change and energy change also the change of a gas to a liquid
Evaporation uses energy to change from a liquid to a gas. Melting uses energy to change from a solid to a liquid. Condensation releases energy to change from a gas to a liquid. Freezing releases energy to change from a liquid to a solid.

energy
An increase in thermal energy may change a solid to a liquid, a liquid to a gas, or a solid to a gas.A decrease in thermal energy may cause a change in the opposite direction - for example, from a liquid to a solid.
