Borax Powder usually takes on the form of a white powder that can easily dissolve in water. It is used in detergents, cosmetics (possibly different kinds of make up), and glazes.
Because hot water can dissolve more of the borax and it needs to be supersaturated so that when it cools it cannot hold as much borax in each molecule, so it releases some of the borax into it's natural repeating mineral shape.
Borax, also known as sodium borate, sodium tetraborate, or disodium tetraborate, is an important boron compound, a mineral, and a salt of boric acid. It is usually a white powder consisting of soft colorless crystals that dissolve easily in water.-----------------------------http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax
Dissolve approximately 0.25g of Borax in distilled water. Titrate against hydrochloric acid using methyl orange indicator. At end-point, solution should be almost colourless against a white background.
borax solution is half a cup of water and 1 tablespoon of borax

"A while". You might get a more specific answer if you specified how much borax, how much water, and how warm, but I kind of doubt it because frankly this is not the sort of thing that people really keep track of. I suppose if you're in the borax industry you might have a general rule of thumb.
Because when you mix it the sugar starts to dissolve quicker and borax just sits there
Borax has a solubility of 5.8 grams per 100 milliliters of solution or 5.8 percent at room temperature. However at an elevated water temperature, more borax will dissolve than at room temperature. As the hot borax solution cools to room temperature, it becomes supersaturated. Supersaturated solutions are unstable and the excess borax will crystallize on any rough surface.

Dissolve 1/4 teaspoon borax powder in 1/2 cup warm water in one of the three bowls. In the second bowl, measure out about 1/2 cup of clear glue and mix with 1/2 cup of water until well blended. Pour the borax and water mixture into the glue and water mixture and stir! You will see everything come together immediately.

When borax is added to hard water elements like Mg and Ca react with borax and come out of water and water becomes soft
The borax water solution is basic.
You will need 1 tablespoon white glue, 1/2 teaspoon borax, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, 2 tablespoons warm water, 2 disposable cups, and 2 stir sticks. Dissolve the borax in the warm water. Mix 1/2 teaspoon of the borax mixture, and all cornstarch to the glue. Allow to stand for 15 seconds, then stir. Remove the mixture and roll in your hands to make a ball. This will be a sticky, but solidifies as it is rolled.
