Ordinary table sugar is a complex hydrocarbon molecule: C12,H22,O11. Notice that it's 11 water molecules and 12 carbon atoms. When Sugar is heated, some of the water is driven off leaving extra carbon atoms laying around. And what color is carbon? Making sugar is a relatively complex process, breaking it down just takes heat.

Well i think you must be knowing a term called bleaching of sugar.Sugar crystals when heated up the breaking point of the bonds(which depends what type of sugar we are using),then the water molecules in it get evaporated and we obtain a black mass of carbon.The reaction is C12H22011 -------HEAT----------->12C + 11H20 Sugar Black Water Mass of Carbon


When sugar is heated it is turned into a solid black substances is it reversible or not?

If this question is asking whether heated, liquefied sugar (caramel) can be turned back into sugar granules, then technically, the answer is yes. It is very difficult and requires superheating and incredibly slow, gradual cooling to ensure the sugar reforms as crystals. The grade and quality of the sugar will almost certainly be significantly reduced.
