Crazy Ooze (Oobleck) and Flubber (Slime) Lab!
Part A: the “Oobleck”
Part B: The “Slime”
Materials:
1 cup Cornstarch
water
Stirring stick
spoons
bowls
food coloring
paper clip
scissors
Materials:
100mL of water
100mL of glue
Food coloring
Borax
Bowls
Food coloring
Measuring spoons
Procedures:
1. Pour 1 cup of corn starch into a bowl.
2. Slowly add water from the beaker (a little at a time—
Pour 1 “Mississippi” and stir at a time), mixing with a stirring stick.
3. Add 3 drops of food coloring. Stir with your fingers.
4. Set aside the empty beaker in a safe place (to be used later) 5. Follow the “action” that you need to take in your observation data chart. Record your observation below. Do all actions listed in this part before cleaning. *You can divide this up amongst yourselves and put it in a Ziploc bag AFTER you record the observation. **After observation: clean your bowl thoroughly using the water from the sink. Dry your bowl with a rag. Procedures: 1. Pour 100mL (1/2 cup) of water from beaker into a bowl that contains glue (1/2 cup).
2. Add a couple of drops of food coloring and stir with stick until mixed completely
3. Add your activator:
*Using Borax:
Mix 1 cup of warm water with 1 tsp of borax powder to make the activator. Add small amounts to you glue mixture until the right consistency (up to you)
*
Using saline solution:
Add 1 ½ Tablespoon of solution to the glue mixture.
* Using liquid starch:
Add ¼ cup of liquid starch to glue mixture.
5. Pick up the mixture and knead it with your hands until it is combined. It is okay if there is water left in the bowl. 6. Do the actions below and record observation. 7. Clean up!
Observation:
Action
What Happens?
Gently bang on it with a spoon
It oozes
Place a tiny object (paper clip) on top of it
The chemical starts to move
As you pour ooze into another container, try to cut it with a pair of scissors
I can’t cut it with a scissor
Squeeze the ooze
It is smooth
Shape it into a ball
It looks weird
After shaping the ooze
into a ball, open your hand.
It changes shape
Observation: Action
What Happens?
Gently bang on it with a spoon
Pull the flubber apart
Squeeze the slime
Shape it into a ball
After shaping the slime into a ball, open your hand.
Let the flubber lie flat on the desk and leave it there for a couple of
minutes

What’s happening?
Your Ooze is made up of tiny, solid particles of cornstarch suspended in water. Chemists call this type of mixture a colloid. Back in the 1700s, Isaac Newton identified the properties of an ideal liquid. Water and other liquids that have the properties that Newton identifies are call Newtonian fluids. Your Ooze doesn't act like Newton's ideal fluid, so it's a non-Newtonian fluid. There are many non-Newtonian fluids around. They don't all behave like your Ooze, but each one is weird in its own way. Ketchup, for example, is a non-
Newtonian fluid. Quicksand is a non-Newtonian fluid that acts more like your Ooze--it gets more viscous when you apply a shearing force. If you ever find yourself sinking in a pool of quicksand (or a vat of cornstarch and water), try swimming toward the shore very slowly. The slower you move, the less the quicksand or cornstarch will resist your movement.
Discussion Questions: 1. Is the ooze an element, compound or mixture? Using the definition, explain your answer in complete sentences. It is a mixture because it’s mixed with different things
2. List some physical properties of
ooze (name at least 4) 3. What properties does the ooze have that makes it a solid?
(think: shape, volume, how it pours, etc) The shape is not really stable. It is not so big in size either
4. What properties does the ooze have that makes it a liquid?
water
5. What must happen for something to be considered to have gone through a chemical change? Did ooze go What’s happening?
The PVA glue you use is a type of polymer called polyvinyl acetate (PVA for short), while the borax is made of a chemical called sodium borate. When you combine the two in a water solution, the borax reacts with the glue molecules, joining them together into one giant molecule. This new compound is able to absorb large amounts of water, producing a putty like substance which you can squish in your hands or even bounce. Generally we classify things as liquid or solid or gaseous but there are some substances that don't behave like expected, like our Ooze and our flubber. Discussion Questions:
1. Is the flubber an element, compound or mixture? Using the definition, explain your answer in complete sentences. 2. List some physical properties of
flubber (name at least 4) 3. What properties does the crazy flubber have that makes it a solid?
(think: shape, volume, how it pours, etc) 4. What properties does the crazy flubber have that makes it a liquid?
5. What must happen for something to be considered to have gone through a chemical change? Did flubber go through a chemical change or a physical change? Using specific evidences from the lab, explain your answer THOROUGHLY.

through a chemical change or a physical change? Using specific evidences from the lab, explain your answer THOROUGHLY.
It has to be bonded together but this is not a chemical change because it is not bonded together

3 Decompression sickness (also known as the bends) is a condition that affects divers and others operating under
pressurized conditions. It occurs when gases such as nitrogen (N₂) come out of solution in the blood. This can
lead to symptoms including joint pain, shortness of breath, and paralysis. Severe cases may result in death.
a What type of molecule (ionic, polar covalent, nonpolar covalent) is nitrogen gas?
b The liquid medium of blood is water. What type of compound (ionic, polar covalent, nonpolar covalent) is
water?
c What happens when molecules such as nitrogen gas mix with water? How does this explain the problems we
see with decompression sickness?

• Stock solution: 1000 mg/L
Target sample concentrations: 50-400 mg/L
• Create a 5-point standard dilution to cover the test
• If each test only needs 10 mL, make plans to make the dilution so you
have 20 mL of each concentration.
