sodium is a metal that is highly reactive with water while sugar is a sweetener you put in your tea. Sodium chloride which is sodium and chlorine makes table salt which is... well salty so your all in all answer in no

∙ 10y agoNo, sugar does not turn into salt, or salt into sugar. They have very different chemical makeups. Salt is composed of Sodium (symbol Na) and Chlorine (symbol Cl). Sugar is composed of Carbon (symbol C), Hydrogen (Symbol H), and Oxygen (Symbol O).
Salt is an ionic chemical compound, and sugar is an organic compound.

∙ 14y agoSugar and salt have different tastes. If, let's say McDonald's put sugar on their french fries instead of salt that would taste very strange. Sugar tastes sweet and salt has a sourish taste.

Do salt and sugar crystals look the same when viewed wth a magnifying glass?
No. There is a definite crystal pattern seen in salt that is not present in sugar.
What melts ice cubes faster sugar or salt?
You will have to do an experiment to determine the answer. You will need to think about having equal concentrations of salt or sugar in the cubes. The size of the molecules/particles is different. So 100 g of salt does not have the same number of molecules/particles as 100 g of sugar. The ratio of particles is 1:4.6 for the same mass of sugar to salt. You can see that this is not an easy question to answer. Which melts faster if the mass of salt and sugar is the same? Which melts faster if the number of particles is the same? The next problem is that salt actually separates into two particles when dissolved in water, sodium ions and chloride ions whereas sugar does not. So one salt particle is actually two ions and the ratio of particles now becomes salt:sugar = 2.3:1 for the same mass of substances. This sounds like a great project for someone to investigate.
Does salt or sugar dissolve faster in cold or hot water?
Sugar sinks at the same rate in warm or cold water. Sugar dissolves faster in warm water.
Will 1 mol of sugar have the same effect as 1 mol of table salt in lowering the freezing point of water?
no because the mol of sugar is 34 g while salt's mol is 5.8 grams
Does sugar dissolve faster than salt when all other variables are the same?
Sugar dissolves in a liquid faster than salt does. The reason is that sugar is less dense as a solute than salt is, leading to it dissolving in the solvent faster as it would fit into the 'empty gaps' that the solvent has at a much faster rate, which is how substances dissolve.
What does the adding of salt and sugar to foods do?
Salt and sugar improve the taste of foods; also they are preservatives.
How can you tell apart sugar or salt?

Is sugar a nurient?

Is a rock that taste like salt called salt rock?
It is the same compound - sodium chloride - with the same taste.
Reduce salt taste?
Sugar balances out the salty taste so its not as bad. dont use too much sugar though.
Does sugar offset salt?
sometimes, but only when it comes to taste.
When salt is dissolved in water what stays the same?
the taste stays the same because when you drink the salt water it taste exactly the same
What s the purpse of sugar in a can?
To balance out the taste of salt which is a cheap preservative
Why is there salt in chocolate milk?
