What happens to sugar added to water at room temperature?

At room temperature, sugar will generally dissolve in the water sample. The sugar molecule won't dissociate anything though since it's a molecular compound and not an ionic one. That is the general trend. There are some cases that may cause something else to happen. Should you have too much sugar and too little water, the solution would become saturated and no more sugar can dissolve so they'll just float around when this happens.


What happens to the taste of tea after putting sugar in it?

When you put sugar in tea it sweetens, depending how much you put in. But if you do put sugar in your tea make sure you mix it because otherwise you'll not taste the sugar because it will float to the bottom. xx


Will milk jugs sink or float in sugar water?

Sugar water is denser than plain water. A saturated solution -- it will not absorb one more gram of sugar -- is about 1.83 grams per milliter. Whole milk's density is 1.034 grams per milliliter. Thus a full jug of milk (assuming a thin plastic jug, not a heavy glass container, and no air in the jug) would float on sugar water. How far it would sink depends on the concentration of the sugar solution.


What is Pop?

The word "Pop" is a soft drink or soda. It is called this because the bubbles caused by the oxygen added with water and sugar, makes a popping noise. For example, if you put a raisin in Sprite, it will sink to the bottom, float to the top, sink to the bottom, float to the top. This probably isn't the most technicle answer, probably because it is written by an 11 year old, but it's good enough :)


Will an egg float better in sugar water salt water or regular water?

Because both salt and sugar are polar (though salt more so) neither will float, but rather both will dissolve in the water. But, assuming that both were not soluble in water, again, neither would float because both are more dense than water is.

What kind of soda floats?

Most diet sodas will float. The reason is that diet sodas use high intensity sweeteners. These sweeteners can be added at about 1/300th the amount that sugar is normally added. which are added at a fraction of what sugar is added. Because such a small amount of sweetener is added, the water and carbon dioxide make the soda lighter than water and it will float.
