covalent
Cornstarch is a covalent compound. It is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms bonded together through covalent bonds.
Cornstarch is a molecular compound because it is composed of nonmetallic elements (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen) bonded together through covalent bonds. Ionic compounds are formed between metals and nonmetals.
The chemicals in cornstarch, primarily amylose and amylopectin, form hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen bonds create a network that gives cornstarch its thickening properties when mixed with liquids.
Defenitely not ionic. It is a very soluble mixture of many (polar) hydrophylic sugar compounds (glucose, fructose, sucrose, maltose, maltodextrins etc.) and water (being a syrup!).So it is not even a molecular compound, whatever that may be!
cornstarch is a compound element.

No, cornstarch is not considered acidic. It is a neutral substance.
The pH of cornstarch is usually around 7, making it neutral. Cornstarch does not significantly impact the pH of a solution it is added to.
No. Cornstarch is a natural polysaccharide. The monomer of cornstarch is glucose.
