Sucrose (C12H22O11) is a carbohydrate(hydrate of carbon) which decomposes when heated to carbon and water

C12H22O11 = 12C + 11H2O

When sugar is heated, it first melts in liquid sugar then after that if we heat it more it caramelises.

Explanation:

  • Sugar is made of 'Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen'.
  • On heating the sugar it meltdown in a liquid with a 'light brown colour'.
  • On continuously heating sugar it turns blackish brown.
  • When the sugar is heated, the element present in it react with the fire and change into liquid.
  • Due to the heat, the atoms of the sugar mix with the oxygen in the air.
