No, dissolving sugar in coffee is a process of solvation, not osmosis. Osmosis involves the movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane to equalize the concentration of solute on both sides, which is not happening in this scenario.
Dissolved in water containing coffee, not in coffee.

okay let's say your putting sugar into coffee the solute is the sugar and solvent is the coffee. The Solvent coffee dissolves the solute "sugar" homogeneously amongst the solution. So the answer to your question is the solvent does the dissolving
The coffee remains coffee, and the sugar is simply dissolved. Thus, it is a physical change.
yes dissolving sugar in a coffee is a physical change in a chemical change a new substance will be formed, and the component of this substance will be different from the parent substance. but in the case of sugar dissolving in coffee, mixture of sugar and coffee retain their respective properties. Moreover we can also separate the constituents from that mixture.and there is no new substance is formed
A solute that can be dissolved into a solvent to form a homogeneous mixture known as a solution. Common examples include salt dissolving in water or sugar dissolving in coffee.
The coffee with added table sugar would be considered a mixture. The table sugar dissolves in the coffee, creating a homogeneous mixture where the sugar molecules are evenly distributed throughout the coffee.
Solvent= Water Solutes: Instant coffee powder, Sugar
Sugar dissolving would be an example of a physical change. This is because it does not change chemically, so it is still sugar.
Yes...I don't know why but that's the correct answer on masteringchemistry.com. I was trying to find a reason why when I came up on this question haha.
