Is sucrose soluble in water?

So, for your question, sucrose can be soluble in water, especially considering the amount of hydroxy groups the molecule bears (remember the 'like dissolves like' principle). In fact, I quickly checked Wikipedia and it says that the solubility of sucrose in water is 2.1kg/L at 298K. read more

The polar or partially charged molecules in water meet the polar molecules in sucrose and energy is created. This reaction causes hydrogen bonds in water to break up and open slots are essentially formed for the sucrose molecules to fit into. read more

Sucrose is very water soluble. Specifically, you can dissolve 2000 g of sucrose -- nearly a pound -- in a liter of water at room temperature, according to the "CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics." The reason you can dissolve so much sucrose in water is that the sucrose molecule is highly polar. read more
