Yes. Wet acetone will disolve sugar because of it's high water content, and although dry acetone will dissolve sugar, it will not do so in the way that wet acetone will.

Answer 3

I think it might, depending if it is a neutral, base, or higher acid. Nuetral, obviously not. Higher than the neutral level, than yes. Lower than the neutral level, than no. They have those acid testers for water, stick that in their and if it comes out a certain color, than depending on what level it is on, that is your answer.
