Dear all Two points arising from the recent correspondence about dissolvong sucrose in water: 1) It is often assumed that 2lbs of sugar to 1 pint of water (1.6 Kg sugar to 1 Kg of water) is the same as 2 Kg of sugar to 1 litre of water. Clearly it is not the same. 2) While 2 Kg of sucrose will dissolve in hot water the solubility of sugar decreases as the temperature drops, and a 2Kg of sucrose to 1 Kg of water nixture will start to crystallise at around 15 degerees C (60 degrees F).
