What would be a reason for a phase change to occur in one substance and not another substance even if both substances began at the same phase and were transferred the same amount of energy?

The molecular attraction of one of the substances was weaker than the other substance causing phase change to occur.

The molecular attraction of both substances were the same causing phase change to occur in one of them.

The molecular attraction of one of the substances was absent compared to the other substance causing phase change to occur.

Phase change can not occur in one substance and not the other because they both started in the same phase.
