This is incorrect for the most part. Heat of fusion is only the break down of forces … changing from solid to liquid. Heat of freezing is from liquid to sold. The numbers are pretty much the same, however the heat of freezing is exothermic so the heat is, for example water -6.01 kj/mol. Heat of sublimation is solid straight to gas.
