Not quite in the way you may think. Sugar particles are solvated within water, meaning that water molecules will form solvated shells around sucrose (common table sugar) and result in the sucrose molecules becoming dispersed within the water.

How the water interacts with the sucrose molecule is by hydrogen bonding with the sugar's polar groups, which is a strong molecular interaction, however is not quite a covalent chemical bond.

What is Sugar and water is an example of?

Sugar water is an example of a solution. This is because the sugar dissolves into the water without being changed chemically.


When sugar is dissolved in water the sugar and water are chemically combined true or false?

False.


What happens to sugar in water in terms of particles?

When sugar is added to water, the sugar molecules dissolve in the water to form a homogeneous solution. This results in the sugar particles spreading out and becoming evenly distributed within the water, with no visible sugar particles remaining.


Is sugar water mixture compound or solution?

Sugar water is a solution because the sugar molecules do not chemically bond to the water molecules.


Can you give examples of compound?

A compound is a substance formed when two or more elements are chemically joined. Water, salt, and sugar are examples of compounds. Most pure substances are compounds A compound is a substance formed when two or more elements are chemically joined. Water, salt, and sugar are examples of compounds. Most pure substances are compoundsA compound is something that has two or more atoms bound together. An example would be water, glucose, alcohol, vinegar.


Why is dissolving sugar in water an example of a reversible change?

The sugar is not chemically changed / oxidized. Gently evaporate the water, and you get the sugar back.


Why is it that the sugar crystals disappear when stirred in water?

The sugar crystals have no added colour and are 'white' crystals in appearance. Once dissolved into the water, they create a transparent sugary solution. The same is for salt crystals that create a saline solution.


Is sugar water a compound a mixture or a solution?

It's a solution, since the sugar is dissolved in water.


Use the particle theory to explain how sugar dissolves in water?

In the particle theory, sugar particles are surrounded by water molecules. As the water molecules move and collide with the sugar particles, they break down the attractive forces holding the sugar particles together, causing the sugar to dissolve. This process distributes the sugar particles throughout the water, creating a homogeneous solution.


How do particles of water that evaporate from an open container differ from the particles that remain?

Chemically any difference exist.


True or false When sugar is dissolve in water the sugar and water are chemically combined?

False. When sugar is dissolved in water, it is a physical change where the sugar molecules are dispersed in the water but no chemical bonds are formed between them.
