∙ 13y agoYes; Ionic bonds (i.e. those joining Na+ and Cl- to make NaCl) are not as strong as the covalent disaccharide bonds found in sugar (R-O-R). More energy (heat and stirring) per unit time is required to dissolve sugar than for a salt. Therefore, a salt will be solvated by water molecules faster than sugar in an aqueous solution.
