Yes, it is true that ions can have a positive or negative charge.
Answer is: 25,06 kJ of energy must be added to a 75 g block of ice.
ΔHfusion(H₂O) = 6,01 kJ/mol.
T(H₂O) = 0°C.
m(H₂O) = 75 g.
n(H₂O) = m(H₂O) ÷ M(H₂O).
n(H₂O) = 75 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 4,17 mol.
Q = ΔHfusion(H₂O) · n(H₂O)
Q = 6,01 kJ/mol · 4,17 mol
Q = 25,06 kJ.
Atomic radius aka distance from the nucleus to the outermost energy level. The greater this distance, the less electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged particles.
