Five molecules of glyceraldehyde -3 -phosphate are converted to 3 molecules of ribulose-1,5- bisphosphate. One molecule of glyceraldehyde -3 -phosphate may be converted to a hexose sugar such as fructose -1-phosphate or glucose -1- phosphate. The G3P molecule can be used for synthesis of cellulose, amino acids or fatty acids.

Carbon dioxide is converted to sugar using ATP and NADPH. This process is known as carbon fixation or the Calvin cycle. Carbon dioxide is combined with a 5-carbon sugar creating a 6-carbon sugar. The 6-carbon sugar is eventually broken-down into two molecules, glucose and fructose. These two molecules make sucrose or sugar.
Sugar is formed from molecules and these molecules contain atoms.
The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.
you just said it === it dissolves. The molecules of sugar are attracted by the water molecules and are separated from other sugar molecules, but they are still sugar molecules.
Sugar and water both are ionic compounds. Due to this sugar dissolve into water further sugar molecules breaks into small molecules in presence of water molecules.
I would say that it needs to converted into ATP because the sugar molecules turn into chemical energy that can be used by a cell to carry out life processes. Cells can breakdown ATP quickly to release the energy.
When granulated sugar and water come in contact, the water molecules surround the individual sugar molecules, and the sugar molecules go into solution. You end up with an aqueous solution of sugar.
