you are trying to dissolve 5 grams of sugar in 1 L of water. The sugar will not dissolve fast enough. Explain how you can increase the rate of dissolving?

do you increase temperature?

1. heat

2. stir/swirl

thanks!

Yes, increasing the temperature of the water can help speed up the dissolving process. When you increase the temperature, the kinetic energy of the water molecules increases, making them move faster. This increased movement creates more collisions between the water molecules and the sugar particles, causing them to break apart and dissolve more quickly.

To increase the temperature, you can heat the water using a heat source, such as a stove or a kettle. Be sure to heat the water gradually and stir it continuously using a stirring rod or spoon while adding the sugar. This will help distribute the heat evenly and promote faster dissolving.

However, it's important to note that there is a limit to the solubility of sugar in water at different temperatures. As you reach the saturation point, further increasing the temperature may not significantly increase the rate of dissolving.
