Sugar (sucrose) is very sparingly soluble in ethanol, and that solubility is temperature dependent.

You can lower the solubility of sugar in an ethanol solution by chilling the ethanol. This will release some of the sugar as a solid. Do it slowly and you will get crystals forming.

If you can chill the ethanol to just above its freezing point you can extract most of the sucrose.

Ethanol freezes at -114 degrees C, so you are unlikely to be able to extract all the sugar in this way unless you have a suitably powerful refrigerant like liquid nitrogen.

Evaporation with recollection of the evaoprate. You could also try recrystallising; warm the solution, add some more sugar so that it dissolves, then cool it.

What is the chief limitation of common microscopes?

Microscopes can only have a resolution which is 1/2 of the wavelength that they use, since the wavelength of light is fairly large: 4 - 7 x 10-7 this limits the amount of magnification that can be used without losing sharpness.

Does anode gain mass?

I'm not completely certain about this but I'm convinced that an anode actually loses mass. For example, in the cell equations for an Ag(s) cathode being dipped into an AgNO3 solution, connected to a Cu(s) anode being dipped into a Cu(NO3)2 solition, 2Ag+(aq) + 2e- -> 2Ag(s) (Cathode 1/2 reaction, reduction) Cu(s) -> Cu2+(aq) +2e- (Anode 1/2 reaction, oxidation) , the cathode reaction is taking the Ag+(aq) ions in the AgNO3- solution and turning them into solid silver, Ag(s). Therefore, I believe it is correct to assume that solid silver is being formed in the cathode solution. The anode half reaction however is the opposite, taking a solid copper atom, Cu(s), and turning it into an aqueous copper cation, Cu2+(aq). This leads me to believe that the copper rod (anode) is losing mass. So, I believe the cathode is gaining mass and the anode is losing mass.

How do you separate crystals from water without losing the water?

Assuming that the crystals have already been formed, as suggested in the question, one could simply filter off the crystals with filter paper, resulting in negligible loss of water. Had the crystals not been formed, the solution could be cooled to create them, and then they could be extracted using the above method, or, alternatively, the water could be evaporated away, and the vapour collected as it does so, allowing for it to be cooled elsewhere, and resulting in little loss of water or crystals.


Does salt form crystals?

Table salt is made of many tiny crystals. When you mix these salt crystals with water, they dissolve, losing their crystalline form. When the water evaporates, the salt crystals form once again.
