Lower Sec Science · Secondary 1 · Hard · Solubility
Warm water is added to a beaker containing some sugar until no more sugar can dissolve. The beaker is then cooled to room temperature without adding more sugar. What happens to the solution as it cools?
- All the dissolved sugar remains in solution and it becomes more dilute.
- Some dissolved sugar separates out as crystals until the solution becomes saturated at the lower temperature.
- All the sugar comes out of solution and the water becomes pure.
- The amount of dissolved sugar increases as the solution cools.
