Question

Rahul is trying to remove sugar mixed in water in water by leaving the water
undisturbed. Even after an hour, he did not get the sugar crystals as sediments
What do you think he should have done?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The easiest way to separate a mixture of sugar and water is to use distillation, a process that separates substances based on their different boiling points. Sugar does not boil, but the point at which it crystallizes (160 degrees Celsius) is much higher than the boiling point of water (100 degrees Celsius), so when you boil a mixture of sugar and water, the water turns to steam and leaves the sugar behind. You can collect the steam to capture the water, effectively separating the sugar and water.
