Experiment 9:
Sand sugar, brown sugar, sugar candied
sugar, icing sugar
A lot of different types of sugar are available for kitchen use:
* Left: Put 1-gram samples of sand sugar (SZ), brown sugar (BZ),
"hail sugar" (HZ),
white (KW) and brown (KB) candied sugar and icing sugar
(PZ) into 6 labelled vials:
1 g of icing sugar needs much more space than 1 g of the
other samples. Its tiny grains are
situated less dense to each other than those of
the other sugars.
* Middle: Add 22 drops of water (= 1 ml) to the sugars in each
vial:
Now all samples have the same volume.
* Right: All sugars have been dissolved by warming and shaking.
Remember: During dissolution
the sugar particles move together their density
increases.
