Does hydrogen peroxide dissolve sugar?
Hydrogen peroxide does not dissolve sugar. It is primarily used as an antiseptic and oxidizer, and it does not have the ability to break down sugar molecules.
Does acetone dissolve sugar?
Yes. Wet acetone will disolve sugar because of it's high water content, and although dry acetone will dissolve sugar, it will not do so in the way that wet acetone will.
Salt or sugar what dissolves in ethanol?
Both salt and sugar are soluble in ethanol. Salt will dissolve faster and more easily in ethanol than sugar due to its ionic nature, which allows it to readily dissociate into ions in the solution. Sugar, being a covalent compound, will also dissolve in ethanol but may take longer due to its larger molecular size.
What happens if you mix water and sugar?
When you mix water and sugar, the sugar will dissolve into the water, creating a sugar solution. This process is known as dissolution. The sugar molecules spread out uniformly throughout the water, forming a homogeneous mixture.
Why do larger sugar grains take longer to dissolve?
Larger sugar grains have less surface area exposed to the surrounding liquid, so it takes longer for the liquid to penetrate and break down the sugar crystals. As a result, the larger grains dissolve more slowly compared to finer sugar grains which have more surface area available for the liquid to act on.
