Investigation into dissolving sugar

BY JITESH PATEL 11C

AIM:  The aim of my investigation is how long sugar dissolves in cool and warm water (h20).

PLAN: I’m going to use temperatures that vary from (30℃ -60℃) for the water. I will use granulated sugar at room temperature. I’m going to dissolve the sugar in the water and take reading of the time it took to dissolve.

        To make this experiment a fair-test I will use a level spoonful of sugar. Then I’m going to take (50mls) of water each time. I will use a thermometer to measure the temperature. I will use temperatures of (20℃/30℃/40℃/60℃). After each experiment I will time it and record the data of my results on a chart.

APPARATUS (EQUITMENT LIST):

  • Safety goggles (because of boiling water)
  • Bunsen burner
  • Tongs
  • Safety mat
  • Splint to light Bunsen burner
  • Glass beaker
  • Thermometer
  • Measuring cylinder
  • Granulated sugar
  • Spoon and knife
Join now!

FAIR TESTING:

  • I’m going to keep the amount of sugar, the type of sugar and the volume of water the same.
  • The one thing I will change is the temperature.

 Safety measures:  

  • Safety goggles
  • Safety mat

RANGE:  I shall use a range of temperatures from (30℃ - 60℃)

PREDICTION: I predict that when I precede my experience the higher the temperature the quicker the sugar will dissolve. I predict this because I know from my science lessons. Some solids dissolve in water and evaporation can occur in this experiment ...
