When sucrose dissolves in water how many solute molecules result from each molecule of solid dissolved?

When dissolved in water, all sugars only break down in to one (1) solute molecule, they just stay in sugar form. This happens because of the covalent bond between the elements within the compound.

∙ 13y agoHere's how it goes: the sugar cube is made up of a bunch of sugar crystals, each made of a specific number of sugar molecules (I think six, but I'm not sure). It is a polar molecule, meaning that there is a slight positive charge at one place (likely a hydrogen) and a slight negative charge at another (likely an oxygen).
Since water is also polar, it tends to pull the sucrose crystals apart into individual sugar molecules and aligns the charges of its own molecules with those of the newly introduced sugar molecules, positive charges attracting to negative charges. This means that the sugar gets "trapped" molecule by molecule between molecules of water.

∙ 11y agoSugar dissolves in water because the energy given off by the sucrose molecules when they form bonds with the water molecules is enough to break the hydrogen bonds of the water. This works especially well because molecular solids, such as sugar, have very weak intermolecular forces.

When an ion or a polar molecule such as sucrose dissolves in water they are surrounded by multiple layers of water molecules collectively called?

What happens when sucrose dissolves in 200ml of water?
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.
Why can benzoic acid be dissolved in alcohol while sugar cannot?
Sugar (or Sucrose) molecules are polar. They have a slight positive end and a slightly negative end. Water molecules have the same property. For this reason, the positive end of a sucrose molecule will be attracted to the negative end of a water molecule and dissolve.Alcohols are non-polar and are equally charged on all sides. The charged ends of the sucrose have nothing to be attracted to except other SUCROSE molecules, therefore they will not dissolve.However benzoic acid is also a polar molecule, but through heat (200 degress F) can bond with alcohol and create a solution...
What is the charge on a solute molecule surrounded by a hydration shell of water?
Solute molecules can be positively charged, negatively charged, or neutral. For example, dissolving sodium chloride in water produces positively charged sodium cations and negatively charged chloride anions. Dissolving sucrose (table sugar) in water produces only dissolved neutral sucrose molecules.
Which molecule has the most atoms?
Many molecules such as organic molecules have significantly large amounts of atoms such as sugar/sucrose (C12H22O11). Others have more Many molecules such as organic molecules have significantly large amounts of atoms such as sugar/sucrose (C12H22O11). There other molecules such as DNA and polymers that have no size limit and there is no maximum size of a molecule.

Sucrose is formed when glucose is joined to fructose?
The disaccharide molecule, sucrose is not formed from two glucose molecules. Sucrose is formed from one glucose molecule and one fructose molecule.

Each sucrose molecule is hydrolyzed in the small intestine to form one molecule of what?
The sucrose molecules are broken down in the molecules of glucose which is the simplest form od the saccharides. The sucrose in the body is not readily metabolized but it has to be broken down into simpler form of molecules. The glucose is easily metabolized int he body.
Sugar dissolves in water because both are made up of?
Sugar (sucrose) dissolves in water because it is a polar molecule, owed namely to its many -OH groups. Remember that water (H-OH) is a very polar molecule. Both molecules share the -OH group that contributes to their polarity.

sucrose
Is sucrose an organic molecule?
AnswerYes.See the Related Questions link to the left for more information about how to determine if any molecule is polar or not.Yes, Sucrose is a polar molecule because the formula is C12H22O11 and any formula with a single Hydrogen molecule, or a single Oxygen molecule is polar. It is held together with dipole-dipole forces.
