No the masses of the sugar and the water are equal to that of the sugar dissolved in the water. "matter can neither be created nor destroyed" - The first law of thermodynamics. i.e. you cant make somethine out of nothing. In this case if there was a weight gain or loss, you must have created, or destroyed some mass.

Note however, if for example the water has significant amounts of gas disoplved in it, for example in a fizzy drink, disolving the sugar in the drink will displace the disolved gas and so overall a mass loss WILL be seen (equal to that of the mass of the gas lost, but this would be very small!)

(This is only technicaly possible in the case of a nuclear reaction in which case Energy can be converted into mass and visa versa. Fortunately or not this does nto happen when you add sugar to your coffee!)

Sugar, table sugar sucrode is a carbohydrate, a disaccharide, C12H22O11. It consists of two rings it is bigger than a water molecule.

- Sucrose doesn't react with water; it is only a dissolution process.
- (sucrose + water) is more than simple sucrose.

When sugar is dissolve in water and the water is evaporated off the mass of the sugar does what?

The mass of the sugar remains the same.


Does dissolved sugar and mass to water?

Sugars are carbohydrates and simple sugars are monosaccharides such as glucose, fructose etc with the general formula C6H12O6. When dissolved in water, these molecules do not break further and hence the mass remains the same.


How one has more molecules 9g of water or9g of sugar?

Perhaps you mean: Does sugar have more atoms than water?In a certain fixed mass of sugar/water, there will be more molecules of water than of sugar since the molecular mass of sugar is higher than that of water. We follow the rule of Mass = Number of moles of a substance * Molecular mass of the substance.We rearrange this to form Number of moles = Mass / Molecular massTherefore, since the molecular mass of sugar is higher, the number of moles of sugar in a fixed mass of sugar is lower. The number of moles of sugar is directly proportional to the number of molecules of sugar, since we follow Avogadro's Law:1 mole = 6 * 10^23 molecules (constant value)However, if you meant to ask if sugar had more atoms than water, the answer is yes, it does. Sugar (presumably glucose) has the chemical formula of C6H12O6 and thus has 24 C, H and O atoms altogether. Water, with the formula H2O, has 3 atoms of H and O altogether.I hope this was helpful! :)


Will Sucrose float in water?

Yes, As you dissolve the sugar into the water the volume of the water will stay the same (once the sugar has gone into solution) but the density of the water/sugar solution will have increased (there is more mass in the same volume). Thus, because when you float something it displaces a volume of liquid equal to its mass/weight, in a sugar solution the floating body will float higher because its mass/weight will be compensated for by a smaller volume of liquid.


When sugar dissolves in water is there a mass change?

No

What is the mass of the compound sugar water as you add 50g of sugar to 50g of water?

mass is conserved (total mass is the sum of the mass of the constituents) so 50 + 50 = 100g

What is the mass of 24g sugar completely dissolved in 576g water?

1. 24 g of sugar are easily dissolved in 576 g water. 2. The mass of sugar remain unchanged.


What happes to the weight if you dissolve sugar in tea?

the total mass will be equal to the mass of the tea added to the mass of the sugar such is the law of conservation of mass. The weight will be proportional and dependent on the gravity force of the position in space


Mass of a sugar cube?

One sugar cube is equal to one teaspoon or 1/48th of a cup.

A sugar solution of 35.8g sugar and 125.35g of water. what is the percent by mass of the sugar and the percent by mass of the water in the solution?

add 35.8g sugar to 125.35g of water this = 100% of the solution. then divide 35.8g of sugar by the whole solution and multiply by 100 to get the percentage (35.8)/ (125.35 + 35.8)= .222 * 100= 22.2% sugar is 22.2% of the solution. Do the same for the water switch 35.8 by 125.35
