Hi lbrox,
Welcome to the Ask an Expert Forums.
Can you explain a little more about your project? "Melting" is usually defined as the transition from solid to liquid, so liquids would not melt.
Looking forward to hearing more,
Chris

Hey lbrox,

the general idea sounds really interesting, but the only problem i see is the specific liquids you're choosing to use.
Coca cola, shampoo, OJ, etc. are solutions of different substances and it would be able to make any sort of clear conclusion if you cannot manipulate one variable at a time.
My suggestion is that you would choose liquids with characteristics you can control, such as the salt concentration in distilled water, such as from 5%, 10%, 20%, etc.
