Hypothesis: white crystal granules in the glass shaker will trigger an exothermic effervescence when introduced to citrus liquid. I carefully rolled a single dried yellow lemon slice off the chopping board and pushed it toward a spilled pool of clear water. Then, using both hands, I knocked over the shaker cap to release three grains of sodium chloride directly into the zone! The liquid didn't boil, but look: the crystalline structures dissolved in precisely twelve seconds! A non-combustive outcome, yes, but undeniably significant data!
