How can you describe the equilibrium in a saturated solution?
No. A saturated solution is still in equilibrium. If you bring it into contact with more of the solute, the concentration will remain the same. Solute will precipitate out at the same rate that more solute dissolves into the solution. An unstable equilibrium would be a supersaturated solution. In a supersaturated solution, more of the solute is in solution that would be equilibrium with the solid solute (or gas if you are dissolving gas for example). An example that many people are familiar with is dissolving a lot of sugar into hot water. As it cools down, the solution becomes supersaturated. As long as there is nothing for the sugar to nucleate on , the sugar can remain in solution indefinitely. If you hang a string in the solution, the sugar will start crystalizing on the string, forming "rock candy."
Is sugar a solute or solvent solution?
Sugar water is a solution in which sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. The water dissolves the sugar.
How can you separate a solution of sugar and water?
let the water evaporate and there will be sugar. Then let the water condense and there will be the waterFirst actually put the sugar and water together than wait and then the sugar will melt and will stay down at the bottom of the pan. and water will be up !!
If sugar was the main impuruty present in crude acetenilide would recrystalization from water be a good method of purification and why?
Yes. First we know acetneilide is soluble in water only when heated. We also know that sugar is soluble in water before and after heating. Therefore, when our sample cools, and recrystallization begins, the sugar should remain in solution, while the acetenilide crystallizes out. Therefore, when we wash our crystals, the sugar remains in solution and filters out.
Is sugar solution a mixture?
Yes. Sugar solution is a homogeneous mixture.
How can sugar be separated from a mixture of sand and sugar?
Pour the mixture into enough water that all the sugar will dissolve. Sand does not dissolve in water, so the sand will settle to the bottom of the solution and then you can sift the sand out of the solution. Then you will just have sand and sugar water, which can evaporate, leaving the sugar behind in the container.
How were you able to separate sugar and charcoal?
Sugar is water-soluble, so dump the whole mixture in some water. The charcoal will settle out and the sugar will remain in solution. Filter out the charcoal and you've separated them!
What is meant by a solution being saturated?
When a solution is saturated that indicates that solution is at a maximum concentration. The solvent is unable to dissolve more of the solute. If more of the solute it placed in the solution, it will not dissolve, yet rather sit at the bottom as a crystallised form. The temperature can also affect the capacity of the solvent's abilities to dissolve the solute eg. it is easier to dissolve sugar into a drink if it is hot than when it is cold. Sometimes if the drink cools down, the crystals settle at the bottom. -- Neenish Tart
Is sugar a solution?
No, sugar is not a solution. Sugar water is a solution of sugar and water, but sugar itself is not.
Is a sugar a solution?
No, sugar is not a solution. Sugar water is a solution of sugar and water, but sugar itself is not.
How does sugar get from liquid to a solid?
It cools
How can you get back sugar from sugar solution?
can we get the sugar back from a sugar solution

Is sugar solution a compound or mixture?
It's a solution, since the sugar is dissolved in water.
Is sugar a solute or solvent solution?
Sugar water is a solution in which sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. The water dissolves the sugar.
What is the effect of sugar solution on turmeric solution?
when sugar solution is added to turmeric solution , it turns yellow.
Are vinegar and sugar a solution?
No sugar is a solute but vinegar is a solution.
