Apply the kinetic theory to describe the motion of particles in a homogenous mixture of sugar and water as it is boiled.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Water turns into vapor leaving sugar behing.

Explanation:

During the kinetic theory of motion of particles during the boiling of a homogeneous mixture of sugar and water, molecules starts moving faster because of the sudden increase in temperature, making the molecules to spread further apart from each other. As sugar water is been heated the water will suddenly turn into vapor leaving the sugar behind.

Answer:

Evaporation

Explanation:

- The sugar molecules are more massive than the water (H2O) molecules. This can be compared across using their Molecular mass (Mr). Since, sugar molecules are more massive they are slower than water (H2O) molecules.

- As Heat is transferred to the the solution the temperature of the mixture rises that increases the speed of all molecules inside the mixture. ( Boltzman expression).

- As the speed of the molecules of water is relatively faster than those of sugar molecules, the molecules of water start to break free from their bonds of liquid and escape into the atmosphere ( evaporation) as gaseous molecules ( steam ).
