What is the difference between salt water and sugar water?

The salt water has the salt...\nThe sugar water has the sugar....

Freshwater fish do not actively drink water, but absorb the water through their skin and gills (osmosis). On the other hand, saltwater fish do actively drink sea water. Their gills process the water and take out the salt.

Salt water is denser than fresh water.

Well since candy is made out of sugar, and sugar dissolves faster in hot water, I would think candy dissolves faster in hot water.

At a higher temperature, the water molecules are further apart, thus creating more space for the molecules of sugar.  Consider two identical bottles: (A) is filled with sand and (B) is filled with gravel.  If you pour water in each bottle, which one will take more water?  Obviously (B) because there is more space available.

a. sugar dissolves into water and the sand can then be filtered out.\n\nb. can be distilled\n\ni'd have to look up the rest. post them when you find them, I'd like to know!

A sucker is almost pure sugar.  Sugar is a very ionic molecule, so it readily disolves in water.

Adding salt to water makes the water denser and as you may know denser liquids have higher boiling points. So if you boiled two pots of water at the same temperature, one full salt water the other not, it would take longer for the salt water to boil.

Sugar water is NOT an electrolyte.\n\nElectrolytes break into ions when dissolved in water, allowing an electric current to pass through the solution.\n\nSoluble salts are good electrolytes since they will easily break into ions in solution.  A very common salt table salt (NaCl) breaks into Sodium +1 and Chloride -1 ions.\n\nOther household items that will break into ions in solution are:\n--Vinegar (a weak electrolyte, breaks into H+ and Acetate -1 ions)\n--Drain Cleaner (commonly NaOH, breaks into Na+1 and OH-1), actually, most household cleaners are made of things that break into ions, but it is not a good idea to just start mixing things unless you know what they are (many people die by doing this and unknowingly make deadly gas).\n\nHousehold bleach is made of a solution of Sodium Hypochlorite (NaOCl) in addition to NaCl and NaOH, so that has all kinds of ions in solution.\n\n\nIf you have ever listened to a Gatorade commercial, you'd know that they are big on putting a buch of electrolytes into their sports drink.

If you make them the same concentration (say 1 molar of each) the salt water will have a lower freezing point, and so will need to be colder before it freezes.  Freezing point is affected by the concentration of particles dissolved in the solution.  Since salt forms two ions and sugar forms only single molecules, you have more particles in a salt water solution than you do in a sugar water solution.

Well for an eight year old....(sounds like an intelligent one to me though)... The reason water freezes slower is because the particles of salt and sugar get in the way of water making a ice crystal.  Salt takes longer because when dissolved it "ionizes" or breaks apart into 2 particles while sugar remains as one.  Salt having two particles it is able to disturb more molecules of water from making ice crystals. I hope that helps! It excites me to here a child of such a young age interested in such things.

Sugar doesn't actually melt it dissolves in water. The temperature of the water determines how quickly it is dissolved- the warmer the water, the quicker the sugar dissolves. It is a really a solution of glucose and water- not melting (if it melted it would only be the glucose).

For any kind of electrochemistry to occur, there should be electrolytes present in the fluid to transfer charges.  This is why salt water is more corrosive.

Both salting and jamming (high sugar levels) use osmosis to preserve food.\nMicrobes cannot grow in these conditions because they lose too much water by osmosis to the highly concentrated solution surrounding the food.

Both are capable of performing well in salt water as long as there is a good flush after boating with fresh water. I live in Fort Walton Beach, Fl. , and you see alot of both.
