What is strange about the oobleck?
what is strange about oobleck is how it is shiny and looks like a very soft liquid like water but is NOT very soft at all and when you put your hand in it it sinks and oobleck fills up those spaces but never gets hard
Is clingfilm a solid or liquid?
it is a gas
If you place a solid in a liquid will ether sink?
That depends on the relative densities of the solid and the liquid. If the solid is denser than the liquid, the solid will sink. If the liquid is denser, the solid will float.
When water changes from a liquid state to a solid state we say it as?
gas -> liquid = condensation liquid -> solid = solidification (freezing) solid -> gas = sublimation gas -> solid = deposition solid -> liquid = melting liquid -> solid = vaporization
What are the observable changes in freezing water?
liquid to solid
What is melted candle wax a solid pure substance liquid or gas?
it may seam like a solid and a liquid, and it is! its called oobleck. No... oobleck isn't a made up word!! when u mix cornstarch and water, it makes oobleck. If u tilt your hand the oobleck will run down your hand like a liquid, but when u touch it... it is a solid. weird right?
What is the scientific word for oobleck?
Oobleck is a heterogeneous mixture more commonly known as a suspension. The mixture is made up of cornstarch and water. It will behave as either a solid or liquid depending on pressure.
Why is Oobleck a gas?
There are three primary states of matter, solid, liquid and gas. Of the three, the one Oobleck is not is a gas.
How does oobleck behave like a solid?
Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid that can behave like a solid when pressure is applied to it. The cornstarch particles in oobleck become more closely packed together, creating a temporary solid structure. Once the pressure is removed, it returns to behaving like a liquid.
Can you save oobleck from turning into a solid by applying a specific method or technique?
Yes, you can prevent oobleck from turning into a solid by continuously applying pressure or agitation to keep the mixture in a liquid-like state.
Why is oobleck a liquid?
Oobleck is a sticky substance that is a solid when pressurized but a liquid when not pressured in room temperature. It is a great thing to help teach kids chemistry. Oobleck is made of 1 cup of cornstarch for every 1/2 cup of water.
Can you cut oobleck?
Yes, oobleck can be cut like a solid when enough force is applied, but it will flow like a liquid when left alone. When pressure is applied to oobleck, the cornstarch particles arrange themselves to resist the force, giving it solid-like properties.
What landuage is oobleck?
Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid that behaves like both a liquid and a solid. It is made by mixing cornstarch and water together. Oobleck is often used for science experiments and sensory play.
When you pick up a handful of oobleck can you hold it?
Yes, when you pick up a handful of oobleck and apply pressure, it acts like a solid, allowing you to hold it. However, when you stop applying pressure, it will flow and act like a liquid, running through your fingers.
Why is it possible to walk on oobleck?
Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid that exhibits properties of both a liquid and a solid. When pressure is applied to oobleck (by walking on it, for example), the cornstarch particles within the mixture temporarily lock together, creating a solid-like surface that can support your weight.
What do you need to add to oobleck to make it just a solid?
To make oobleck just a solid, you would need to add a material like cornstarch or starch in higher proportions to the liquid (water) until it forms a consistent, solid-like structure that no longer flows like a liquid.
Why is oobleck a solid and a liquid?
Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid with shear thickening properties, meaning that when stressed is applied to it, its apparent viscosity increases. Basically, when someone hits it, it behaves more like a solid.
