What is the difference in desolving a lump of sugar and powdered sugar?
Wiki User
∙ 15y ago
Assuming the solvent liquid is hot enough to dissolve all of the sugar and that the "lump" is more coarse than the powder, putting in the higher-density lump would impose diffusion-limited decomposition. In other words, putting in powdered sugar would allow faster absorption into the liquid, since there is more surface area of sugar exposed to the solvent. However, air resistance of small sugar particles between the powder source and solvent could lead to loss through in the pouring process, limiting the efficiency of sugar saturation.

Why do you think that is easier to dissolve powdered brown sugar tahn a big whole piece or chunk of brown sugar in water?
The finer the grains of sugar, the more surface area of individual grains is exposed to the heat. A solid lump of sugar has to melt from the surface into the centre - therefore, initially, has less surface exposed to the heat.
Why is the rate of rusting on powdered iron be greater that on a lump of iron?
The surface area is bigger.
Why is powdered chalk more like a liquid than a lump of chalk is?
because it consists of small particles that are similar to liquid. Even if we add water to a powdered chalk, it dissolves easily whereas a lump of chalk is harder to dissolve in water.
