If it is mixed correctly, you get a solid and a liquid at the same time, a substance known as a Non-Newtonian fluid. By that I mean that if you squish it it will become a solid, and if you just leave it in your hand it will turn into a liquid. Its fun to just play with when your bored

It is a non-Newtonian fluid, known scientifically as a dilatant. It is sometimes also referred to as "Oobleck", after a green sticky slimy substance from the Doctor Seuss story "Bartholomew and the Oobleck".

Anyone who has ever watched a classic western movie knows about the dangers of quicksand. You know... that gooey stuff that grabs a hold of its victim and swallows them alive! So, what is quicksand and how does it really work? In this experiment, you'll learn how to mix up a batch of thick, gooey material that behaves just like real quicksand.

In this experiment, you'll be using ordinary cornstarch to model the behavior of real quicksand and learn about the properties of this non- Newtonian mixture.

IMPORTANT - READ THIS! Ironically, the cornstarch will not stay mixed with the water indefinitely. Over time, the grains of cornstarch will separate from the water and form a solid clump at the bottom of the plastic storage bag. It is for this reason that you must not pour this mixture down the drain. It will clog the pipes and stop up the drain. Pour the mixture into a zipper-lock bag and dispose of it in the garbage.
