Why does sugar melt faster than butter?
Sugar is a simple molecule, the most common of sugars is made up of SUCROSE. Sucrose is a combination of 2 molecules, GLUCOSE and FRUCTOSE. It is joined by a rather weak GLYCOSIDIC BOND. Butter contains many more molecules, including lipids and sugars. Lipids are joined using Hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonds are still quite weak, but stronger than the glycosidic bonds of the sugar. Also, as the sugar is a simpler molecule, it has less to break down.
