You would get gloop that is both a solid and a liquid
I did an experiment where we mixed corn starch and soil together and then grew a plant it it. It did grow very well after a couple of days of continous watering. I do not know how it would do though in just corn starch, because corn starch tends to absorb all the water and nutrients not leaving any for the plant
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.
You would use potato starch and water
No. Some substances don't react with water at all when mixed. A good example is oil. Water is a polar molecule while oils are non-polar. If you put both in a jar together and mixed them together, then let them sit, they would separate into layers.
Bleach and hot water mixed together will kills some ants outside in your yard,however, it won't get to the source of the problem and kill the colony. Boric acid would be much stronger to eradicate an ant problem.
no. If you drank this would you get stomach cramps and diarrhea
Miscible and immiscible are you to describe what happens when substances (usually liquids) are mixed together. If 2 layers are formed, like when oil is mixed with water, then the oil would be described as immiscible in water as it does not form a solution. If the two substances mix together and no layers are formed, like when orange squash is mixed with water, the we would say the orange squash is miscible in water as it has formed an orange solution.
No, it won't work. potato starch is just shredded potato, so the potato would just dissapear in the water and the water would be sticky.
a magnesium salt of the acid, and hydrogen gas - water is already present.
It means a chemical/ substance, that cannot be dissolved in a liquid. An example would be starch and water, as starch is insolute when added to water.
the water then appears coulerless
place starch solution inside the partially permeable membrane and than partially submerge it a beaker filled with distilled water. after some time, take the tubing out and test the water inside the beaker for starch by adding iodine solution. if the tubing is permeable to starch, the starch would have diffused into the water in the beaker and test positive for starch and turn dark blue. if not, then the water in the beaker would test negative for starch and remain a yellowish brown solution.
