Brown sugar is sweeter than white sugar because brown sugar contains molasses. White sugar is made from pure sucrose, it can sometimes be taken from pure sugar cane or sugar beets. Therefore, brown sugar is slightly sweeter and contain a few more calories than white sugar..
No as it's the same thing. The only difference is dark brown sugar has more molasses in it than light brown sugar. It's a reference to color not fat/calorie content.
It is better for you and more difficult to grow.

Neither brown or white sugar have any health benefits for you. The idea that brown sugar is healthier than white sugar is a myth born of the fact that brown rice, wheat breads, and wheat pasta, amongst other brown versions of whiter foods are healthier for you. In fact, brown sugar is merely white sugar with molasses added to it. When raw sugar is harvested from sugar cane it can have a slightly brown appearance because of the presence of molasses. The raw sugar becomes white from bleaching to remove the molasses, and the brown sugar that we use for baking is simply white sugar with an amount of molasses added, more or less, to make dark or light brown sugar, respectively. Though molasses in the brown sugar does have minerals such as iron, potassium, and calcium, the amounts are so small as to have no nutritional value to the human body. Both brown and white sugar are nearly 100% pure sucrose. Therefore, whether brown is better than white is nothing more than personal taste. Brown sugar has a richer flavor because of the presence of molasses, and brown sugar used in products such as cookies can give them a softer, chewier texture than white sugar. That is the only real difference between the two versions. So, to answer the question "why is brown sugar better than white sugar", in two words: it isn't.
Cane sugar has a more refined flavor than brown sugar and can be used as sweetener in most cases. Someone would use it because they do not need the texture or complex flavor of brown sugar.
Brown sugar, through clever marketing, has little nutritional benefit compared to white sugar.Brown sugar is simply an unrefined (or partially refined) soft sugar with added molasses, and this is what makes the sugar look brown.See link for Food Genetics.
both are not good for you. however, alot of people thinks that brown sugar is actually better, but this is not true. "Brown sugar, through clever marketing, has no nutritional differences than white sugar." See link for Food Genetics
More surface area in the powdered sugar. Means more of the sugar gets exposed to the liquid at the same time. In a big lump, the sugar inside won't get in contact with the liquid until the outer sugar has worn away.
