    In the wizard of Oz, The witch melts when some water is dumped on her, (no idea why).

    Acids have a low pH, alkalines have a high pH. So putting a low pH liquid on a high pH creature has some pretty disasterous results, and provides a far better reason for the witch melting other than “oh yeah, she’s soluble”.

    She has a pH of 10.2?!!? That’s not your average witch — that’s your basic witch.

    I’ve always presumed it was really, really hot water. Otherwise it totally doesn’t count as melting.

    Then again, maybe witches don’t worry about semantics while they’re dying.

    Although it does raise the question of why you would put a bucket of insta-kill-liquid in your enemies hands, then stand in front of them…
