Sugar does not dissolve in water. (True or False)

The correct option is B False

Explanation

• Sugar dissolves in water because energy is given off when the slightly polar sucrose molecules form intermolecular bonds with the polar water molecules.
• The polar water molecules attract the negative and positive areas on the polar sucrose molecules, which makes sucrose dissolve in water.
• Since the ions in salt and the molecules in sugar are very different, their solubilities tend to be different.
• Sugar is much more soluble in water than is salt. But even sugar has an upper limit on how much can dissolve.
• In a half liter of 20 °C water, the maximum amount is 1000 grams.
• Hence the given statement is incorrect.
