If pure ice is at its melting point ( 0 oC) , then leon will melt it.

However, if the ice is very cold, say - 49 oC then lemon will not melt it.

Many liquids , water included, have cryoscopic constants. Depending on the materials added they will depress the freezing point of the liquid.

Citric acid will melt ice at low temperatures. It is also non toxic and much safer to use that many chemicals.
