Yes. Temperature is not a measure of heat. In its literal sense, it is a measure of molecular motion. Hotter objects have atoms moving at greater speeds. The faster moving atoms in warm water bombard the sugar molecules with greater velocity thus making it dissolve faster than cold water, which contains slower moving atoms.

Will powdered sugar dissolve more rapidly in cold water or hot water?

Powdered sugar will dissolve more rapidly in hot water than in cold water. The increased temperature of the water enhances the kinetic energy of the molecules, allowing the sugar particles to break apart and dissolve more quickly. In contrast, cold water molecules have less energy, leading to slower dissolution.
