Question

iii) Predict how long 5g of sugar will take to dissolve at 5°C.

Answer 1

Explanation:

There is not something exact that can be said about the time that will be taken by the sugar to dissolve at 5 degree Celsius.

There are many factors that will contribute in deciding the time for sugar dissolution. Some of these factors are

• surface area of crystals
• rate of agitation of the mixture
• rate of heat transfer to the vessel

So, you have to work on these parameters in order to know the time taken by sugar to dissolve.
