1. Describe the properties of Chemical A and Chemical B.

• Chemical A: White in color, opaque, powdery substance, smooth texture, smells like corn starch, solid.
• Chemical B: No color, Clear/transparent, no smell, liquid.

2. Describe the properties and behavior of Oobleck.

• The oobleck was white in color, smelled of corn starch, and appeared to be a liquid.
• While observing the behavior of the oobleck you start to notice that the oobleck appears to act as both a solid and a liquid, for example, if the oobleck is being touched or played in a fast motion it feels like a soft solid object similar to playdough, however if you were to hold the oobleck in your hand it would act as a liquid.

3.   Do you think Oobleck is a gas, liquid, or solid? Why?

• I think that the oobleck is a liquid although it acts as both a solid and a liquid. I think it is a liquid because the particles in a liquid do not take any particular shape and take up the space of the container it is in, I think that the description of particles in a liquid compared to that of a solid relate more to the particles in the oobleck.

4. Reflect on this lab: how did it help you understand KMT?

• This lab helped me understand KMT because it gives you a better understanding of the changes of state like solidification (freezing ), and melting.
