The experiment involving corn flour and water typically demonstrates the properties of a non-Newtonian fluid, often referred to as "oobleck." When corn flour (cornstarch) is mixed with water, it behaves as a solid when force is applied (like squeezing or punching) but flows like a liquid when at rest. Therefore, the result is not purely a solid, liquid, or gas, but rather a suspension that exhibits characteristics of both solids and liquids under different conditions.

Why is flour a solid and not a liquid or gas?

Flour acts as a solid when in a stationary state however if air is blown into the flour at a calculated rate, the flour can take on the properties of a liquid. Adding air to the flour adds energy which moves the particles similar to adding energy to a block of ice which excites the molecules into movement.

How can you use the scientific method to explain why insects seem to suddenly appear in flour fruit and cornmeal?

1. Create a hypothesis regarding why the insects seem to suddenly appear. 2. Create an experiment to test that hypothesis. 3. Collect and analyze the results of the experiment. 4. Finally, draw conclusions whether the results support your hypothesis. For example, a hypothesis might be that insects appear in flour, fruit, and cornmeal because they hatch from eggs, which were deposited when the observer wasn't looking. To test that hypothesis, a sample experiment may be to place flour, fruit, or cornmeal in two separate jars. In one jar, put a lid on it. Leave the other jar open. For a week or so, look at the jars daily and write down whether you see insects. If you do, jot that down. These are your results. After a week or so, you can look at the results and compare them. If insects appear in both jars, the experiment did not support the hypothesis. (NOTE: that doesn't mean the hypothesis is wrong; only that that experiment did not support it.) If insects appear only in the closed jar, then you could conclude that your hypothesis was supported by the experiment. Again, that doesn't mean your hypothesis is right; only that it was supported by the experiment. Based on your conclusions, you can make a new hypothesis, which could further refine the cause of the insects.

Can you substitute regular rice for rice flour in a recipe?

No. Flour is finely ground. Regular rice is hard pieces. Completely different texture. Now if you smashed cooked rice into a paste, were able to mix this smoothly with the other ingredients, and compensated exactly for the extra liquid in the cooked rice.... well, experiment.
