15 grams sugar per liter is the concentration, in terms of mass per volume. To express the concentration in molarity (assuming the sugar is sucrose):
15 g sucrose * (1 mole sucrose / 342 g sucrose) / 1 L = 0.0439 M aqueous sucrose
When a potato is placed in a concentrated sugar solution, water will move out of the potato cells via osmosis, resulting in the potato shrinking and becoming soft and limp. This is because the sugar solution has a higher solute concentration than the potato cells, causing water to move from an area of higher water concentration (inside the potato) to an area of lower water concentration (the sugar solution).
To determine the concentration of the solution, we need to calculate the total mass of the solution first. The total mass is the sum of the mass of sugar (25 g) and the mass of water (50 g), which equals 75 g. The concentration of the solution is then calculated by dividing the mass of the solute (sugar) by the total mass of the solution: (25 g / 75 g) x 100% = 33.33%. Therefore, the concentration of the solution is 33.33%.
Yes, the conductivity of water increases as the concentration of sugar increases. This is because sugar molecules disrupt the hydrogen bonding between water molecules, allowing more ions to move freely in the solution, therefore increasing its conductivity.
Some types of sugar solutions include sucrose solution (table sugar dissolved in water), glucose solution, fructose solution, and maltose solution. These solutions can vary in sweetness and application based on the type and concentration of sugar used.
If a raisin is placed in a low concentrated sugar solution, water will move from the high concentration inside the raisin to the low concentration solution, causing the raisin to swell up and become plump as it absorbs water through the process of osmosis.

No, a concentrated solution has a high amount of solute dissolved in a solvent. In the case of water and sugar, the concentration of sugar would need to be higher in order for the solution to be considered concentrated.
Sugar was absent in the tubing at first because it was in the water solution outside the tubing. Through osmosis, water molecules moved from the tubing, which had lower sugar concentration, into the solution with higher sugar concentration, equilibrating the sugar levels inside and outside the tubing.
Yes, an egg can float in concentrated sugar water because the density of the solution is higher than that of the egg. When the sugar concentration is high enough, it can cause the egg to float due to the difference in density.
If you leave water with sugar overnight, the sugar will dissolve in the water, creating a sugar solution. Over time, if left covered, the solution may attract bacteria and mold, especially if exposed to air or contaminants. If left uncovered, the water may also evaporate, leading to a more concentrated sugar solution. However, no significant chemical changes occur in the sugar itself.

When a sugar solution is exposed to air, the water in the solution can evaporate, concentrating the sugar. This can cause the sugar solution to become more viscous or even crystallize if enough water evaporates. Additionally, airborne contaminants or microorganisms can potentially interact with the sugar solution.
You can either add more sugar or boil off some of the water.
No, sugar is not a solution. Sugar water is a solution of sugar and water, but sugar itself is not.
