Cornstarch is a polymer, so it doesn't have an exact formula but what I found on the web the formula is similar to this: C6H11O5 - (C6H11O5)x - C6H11O6 where x is a very high number.

What is the chemical formula for cornstarch added to water?
Well, there is no chemical reaction, really, since the cornstarch still remains cornstarch. (and if you dry it, it becomes cornstarch again) It's just that the cornstarch lightly bonds to the water which then lightly bonds to other cornstarch, creating a net-like substance. This net is easily broken and made, thus increasing the viscosity of the fluid and adding some other interesting properties to it as well.
Why does the the water passes through the filter paper but not the cornstarch?
