Sugar is a water-soluble material, meaning that when in water (more eaily in hot or warm water), the molecules will begin to break down and the sugar will disolve / desintigrate into the tea water.
Yes, but only until the solution saturates.
yes
tea doesnt dissolve its the sugar that does
heat the tea and stir it. this will allow you to dissolve more sugar in the tea, causing it to be supersaturated. once the tea cools some sugar may fall to the bottom.
sugar into tea :]]]
Dissolve... mixing with the tea.
yes
In a Solution i.e your tea, only so much sugar can Dissolve. If you put loads of sugar into your tea, it can become a saturated solution. This means that the excess molecules of the sugar have no more room to dissolve into the tea, therefore it just sets at the bottom like sand.More Information:It is possible that enough sugar was added to the tea to saturate it, at which point no more sugar would dissolve, but that takes a lot of sugar. So, it is more likely that more time was needed for the sugar to dissolve. This process can be hastened by inverting the sugar (by adding a bit of lemon juice and/or corn syrup [glucose])
So the sugar will dissolve.
Stirring makes it faster for the sugar to completely dissolve in the tea.
yes
Have the tea at a cooler temperature.
I can dissolve more sugar in hot tea rather than cold tea.
Well, in a cup of 200mL of tea one teaspoon will indeed dissolve. In fact up to 32 teaspoons of sugar will dissolve in a cup of hot tea (200mL). Not that you want that much sugar...Not sure if coffee is the exact same with sugar amounts.
