The purpose of this lab was to determine how different solvents affect the solubility of sugar. In this experiment 2 grams of sugar was mixed into 50 ml of rubbing alcohol, water and vegetable oil. It was hypothesized that the rubbing alcohol would dissolve the sugar the best followed by the water, and the vegetable oil would fail to dissolve the sugar. It was found out that both the rubbing alcohol and the vegetable oil were not able to dissolve the sugar. The water however, was able to dissolve the sugar. In each trial the data was the same. Except for the time it took the water to dissolve the sugar, which was 20 seconds for the first trial, 35.77 seconds in the second, and 39.9 in the third. The hypothesis was partially correct.
