sugar cubes
Granulated sugar has a higher surface area than sugar cubes due to its smaller grain size, which allows for quicker dissolution in hot liquid like coffee. The increased surface area means more of the sugar is in contact with the liquid, speeding up the dissolution process compared to the denser sugar cubes.
A sugar cube will - one, sugar cubes are designed specifically to dissolve quickly into solvents such as tea, coffee, liquids to make solutions. Granulated sugar, on the other hand, is often a solute for solid solvents such as flour etc. However, the granulated sugar can be dissolved more quickly if stirred, which makes the solute particles attract to the solvent particles more efficiently.
Let's imagine the following objects first: Sugar cubes are solid blocks, each with a comparatively larger volume. Granulated sugar is fine and particulate, and each grain has a very small volume. It is only logical that when comparing one block of sugar to one grain of sugar, that the grain dissolves faster because it has a smaller volume (less to dissolve), and the surface area to volume ratio is much higher.
no they are same
No, caster sugar is fine-ground granulated sugar. Confectioner's sugar is a mix of ultra-fine sugar and a starch; it is sometimes called icing sugar.
Caster sugar has finer granules than regular (or "granulated") sugar. For cupcakes, you should be able to use regular sugar instead of castor without any detriment to the final product.
The main distinguishing feature of confectioners' sugar is that its a very fine powder (while regular sugar is often in powder form, it is more granular, hence the name granulated). This helps the confectioners' sugar dissolve faster, which may aid in some applications.
Usually it is plain granulated sugar that you would use for anything else. Some people prefer sugar cubes, which is suagr pressed into a small cube shape.
Granulated sugar would dissolve faster because there is more surface area exposed to the water.
Caster sugar is finer and dissolves more easily than granulated sugar. Granulated sugar has larger crystals and is commonly used in baking and cooking, while caster sugar is often used in recipes where a smoother texture is desired, such as in meringues or custards.

Yes it does the powdered sugar does grow faster and the granulated sugar starts to mold
