What happens when you mix cornstarch and universal indicator?

When you mix cornstarch with universal indicator, the cornstarch typically does not react chemically with the indicator. Instead, the universal indicator will change color based on the pH of the solution, while the cornstarch serves as a thickening agent. If the mixture is in a solution with a certain pH, the color change of the indicator will reflect that pH level, but the cornstarch will mainly affect the texture rather than the pH itself.
