because something too complicated to explain to simple minds happens and it makes a colloidal substance.
Well, there is no chemical reaction, really, since the cornstarch still remains cornstarch. (and if you dry it, it becomes cornstarch again) It's just that the cornstarch lightly bonds to the water which then lightly bonds to other cornstarch, creating a net-like substance. This net is easily broken and made, thus increasing the viscosity of the fluid and adding some other interesting properties to it as well.
Albumin in water is an example of a colloidal solution. Sand and water is a suspension and sugar in water is a solution. So the answer is A.
A colloidal mixture is sometimes called a colloidal system, a colloidal suspension, or simply a "colloid." The smallest dimension of the minor component of a colloidal mixture can range from approximately one nanometer (1 billionth of a meter) to one micrometer (1 millionth of a meter). Examples of liquid colloidal mixtures are milk, paints, and muddy water. The medium can be a gas, in the cases of smog, smoke, or aerosol sprays. Some solids are considered to be colloidal mixtures, as in steel or foam rubber. A colloidal mixture is sometimes called a colloidal system, a colloidal suspension, or simply a "colloid."

The origin of the word is from a Dr. Seuss book named, "Bartholomew and the Oobleck. It is a non-Newtonian substance made of cornstarch and water that acts like a solid when force is applied. You can pour it or have it drip from your fingers. You can make it with 1 cup of cornstarch and 1/2 cup of water (add food coloring to the water) and mix.
When this substance is a solid, it is called ice. When the substance is a liquid, you can drink it to become refreshed. When the substance is turned into gas, it is invisible. The substance is water.
If you mix cornstarch and glycerol you get a gel like substance that will take a sightly yellow complexion compared to cornstarch and water. This is not the same substance that you get if you mix cornstarch and water
yes you can but you'd need a lot of cornstarch like 5:1 of cornstarch to water
Water can be used to dissolve cornstarch, but more details would be needed to know what this particular experiment uses.

mix cornstarch with water until it become thick and roll it into a ball about 3inchs and let set for about a week and it will be chunky mix cornstarch with water until it become thick and roll it into a ball about 3inchs and let set for about a week and it will be chunky

If you are referring to any metal particles suspended in water I believe the term you are looking for is Colloidal. For example.... Colloidal Silver is silver particles suspended in water.
It is a solution. :)

Colloidal pressure is the osmotic pressure generated by colloidal particles due to their ability to absorb water and swell, creating pressure on the surrounding solution. It plays a role in maintaining the stability and structure of colloidal systems.
The water actually passes through the filter paper and the cornstarch. However, the cornstarch does not pass through the filter because the molecules are to large.
