Why do you think the cornstarch did not move into the ziplock bag?
(A.) The pressure from the outside water prevented the cornstarch from moving.
B. The cornstarch molecules were too big to move into the ziplock bag.
C. Cornstarch is hydrophobic (latin for fear of water).
D. Water and cornstarch are opposites, like water and oil.

Respuesta :

The cornstarch molecules were too big to move into the ziplock bag.

What is the size of the cornstarch  molecules?

We know that molecules are of differing sizes. A molecule is may be large or small in size. If a molecule is small in size, the molecule may be able to pass through many barriers as a result of its small size.

On the other hand, if the molecule is big, then it may not be able to pass through a small aperture because the molecule would have to force itself through the aperture.

Hence, the reason why the  cornstarch did not move into the ziplock bag is that the cornstarch molecules were too big to move into the ziplock bag.
