What is strange about the oobleck?
what is strange about oobleck is how it is shiny and looks like a very soft liquid like water but is NOT very soft at all and when you put your hand in it it sinks and oobleck fills up those spaces but never gets hard
Is clingfilm a solid or liquid?
it is a gas
If you place a solid in a liquid will ether sink?
That depends on the relative densities of the solid and the liquid. If the solid is denser than the liquid, the solid will sink. If the liquid is denser, the solid will float.
When water changes from a liquid state to a solid state we say it as?
gas -> liquid = condensation liquid -> solid = solidification (freezing) solid -> gas = sublimation gas -> solid = deposition solid -> liquid = melting liquid -> solid = vaporization
What is the name of the process where a solid turns to liquid then gas?
To get a solid to a liquid you have to apply heat and melt it, and to get a liquid to a gas it has to evaporate. If you are talking about a solid going into a gas, then I don't know.
What is melted candle wax a solid pure substance liquid or gas?
it may seam like a solid and a liquid, and it is! its called oobleck. No... oobleck isn't a made up word!! when u mix cornstarch and water, it makes oobleck. If u tilt your hand the oobleck will run down your hand like a liquid, but when u touch it... it is a solid. weird right?
When you pick up a handful of oobleck can you hold it?
* oobleck is a solid and a liquid at the same time,depending on it's treatment
What is a liquid that can turn into a solid called?
The liquid that can turn into a solid is called a "freezing" or "solidification" process
Why is Oobleck a gas?
There are three primary states of matter, solid, liquid and gas. Of the three, the one Oobleck is not is a gas.
What is the scientific word for oobleck?
Oobleck is a heterogeneous mixture more commonly known as a suspension. The mixture is made up of cornstarch and water. It will behave as either a solid or liquid depending on pressure.
Why is oobleck a liquid?
Oobleck is a sticky substance that is a solid when pressurized but a liquid when not pressured in room temperature. It is a great thing to help teach kids chemistry. Oobleck is made of 1 cup of cornstarch for every 1/2 cup of water.
Why is oobleck a solid and a liquid?
Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid with shear thickening properties, meaning that when stressed is applied to it, its apparent viscosity increases. Basically, when someone hits it, it behaves more like a solid.
Why can you walk on oobleck?
because it acts like a solid
What happens when you mix water and starch?
You get oobleck, which is a non-Newtonian fluid. A non-Newtonian fluid has properties of both a solid and a liquid and reacts to stress with increased viscosity.
What material would be the most appropriate to represent the asthenosphere?
The material that would be the most appropriate to represent the asthenosphere is Oobleck, corn starch and water mixed together, because it is not liquid nor solid. The asthenosphere is nor liquid or solid. It is something in between but none exactly.
What will happen of you put oobleck in the freezer?
It freezes solid but does not expands nor contracts.
What do you need to add to oobleck to make it just a solid?
you need to add air
