Pouring Molten salt into Water - Explosion!

The video explores the explosive reaction of molten salt when poured into water. Initially inspired by another video, the presenter attempts the experiment, expecting a small explosion but instead witnesses a powerful one. Using high-speed cameras, the presenter analyzes the reaction, comparing it to other salts and sodium metal. The conclusion is that the reaction is physical, not chemical, as no pH change is observed. The video highlights the mystery of why sodium chloride behaves differently from other salts.
