Reflection

Today in class we mixed corn starch with water.When we took it into our hands and squeezed it it felt really grows just like you would be touching spaghetti. It all started falling out of my hands. If we added to much water (which my group did) it actually became more liquid then solid.If there wasn't enough water it became hard solid. Well in the beginning when we mixed corn starch and water in a small cup and left it in the end it became like glue. When we mixed it on the big plate first we put in to much corn starch so it actually got stuck onto the plate so we dded to much water and it became liquid. My hands well in the beginning i was like "Yuck!!" but then my hands got used to it and when we washed it it left that awful smell! We could add some other liquid and see what happens. It was really fun and I really wish that we can do it again.

If you wish to see the video type this in you tube!

Simple Corn Starch + Water Mixture in a bowl

The video is showing basically the same thing we did in a smaller bowl. The mixture in the video is the same but you can see that they left it to dry for a bit so it became harder.
