Popping ability it related to the toughness of the outer hull of the popcorn and the moisture content of the kernel. The best popping brands have a thinner outer shell and a higher moisture content. They have been hybridized to produce these qualities.
I have seen many questions on other sites asking about frozen popcorn. here's ... moisturise starts to vaporize which causes increased pressure in the kernel until .... Will frozen popcorn pop more kernels than room temperature popcorn when.
crunchy and popping
You could try popping it. Usually you can tell very quickly, because if the kernels are too old, they won't pop very well. For microwave popcorn, the kernels will remain at the bottom of the bag. Popcorn has a shelf life of approximately two years. After this, it loses moisture and can become stale. It can also expire if the kernels are not stored properly. Popcorn dries out. The tiny bit of moisture inside the kernel is what causes it to pop. Without the moisture, the kernel remains.
Popcorn is a type of corn. Most popping corn is specifically grown for that purpose using strains which exhibit good popping characteristics.To pop, the kernels need to have a hard shell which is impervious to moisture. When heated, the moisture trapped inside turns to steam and builds up pressure, eventually rupturing the shell and turning the starchy contents into a foam, which rapidly cools and sets into the familiar puffy "popcorn".
Chemical change
Physical properties of a bag of microwaveable popcorn are the mass of it, the color of it, the size of it, and the weight of it. Two chemical properties of a bag of microwavable popcorn are it changed from seeds to popcorn and it popped.
