What happens to the paricles of sugar when a sugarcube is dissolved in water?

the sugar particles turn into ions which attach to the polar molecules of water
Each sugar molecule does not become an ion. Each sugar molecule is charge neutral and thus has no charge. When sugar is dissolved in water, the water pulls the sugar molecules apart from each other and the individual sugar molecules no longer touch each other. Each sugar molecule is surrounded by water. The forces between molecules are responsible for this. The polar shape of water molecules is what governs the separation.

Why does icing sugar dissolve the quickest?
Becaue the icing sugar has small paricles.
What happens sugar is added to water?
The sugar will dissolve in water because sugar is polar and so is water with hydrogen bonds. When attraction happens, the water molecules will separate the sugar molecules and the sugar will be dissolved.
What happens when sugar is stirred into water?
The sugar will dissolve in water because sugar is polar and so is water with hydrogen bonds. When attraction happens, the water molecules will separate the sugar molecules and the sugar will be dissolved.
What is dissolved in alcohol?
Sugar Is dissolved in alcohol
When sugar is dissolved in water water is called a?
When sugar is dissolved in water, water is called a SOLVENT
When sugar is dissolved in water the sugar is?
The solute.
What happens to dissolved sugar when the hot water cools?
After the water cools the sugar will remain dissolved, although once all of the water is evaporated then the sugar will be left at the bottom of the glass. It's pretty fun to try with a clear glass or something. P.S. Sugar will dissolve in cold water too, it just takes more stirring.
When sugar is dissolved in water is it a new substance?
No. The SUBSTANCE is still water, only now sugar is dissolved in it.
What happens to particle of sugar when they melt and dissolve?
When a substance dissolves in water, water molecules get between the particles of the dissolved substance, separating them.
What properties do not change when sugar is dissolved in water?
The property of sweetness of sugar does not change when it is dissolved in water. Although sugar becomes invisible in the solution in water.
What is stirred sugar?
It is sugar that is stirred and is dissolved faster than regular sugar.
What happens when sugar is dissolved in H2O?
Neither of the two will do anything simply within each other but water becomes slightly more dense.
