Does a sugar cube have a greater surface area than sugar crystals?
depends on the two objects!
Why can two four sugar polysaccharides be different even if both consist of two glucose monomers and two galactose monomers?
They can be arranged in different ways - for example, in a different order, or even a straight chain vs. forked (I am not quite sure whether this is possible with sugar monomers).
Which has greater surface area a sugar cube or an equal mass of sugar crystals?
Consider this:If a cube has side length d, then its volume is d3 and its surface area is 6d2.If I cut the cube into 8 smaller cubes by bisecting each edge, then the new side length is d/2, the sum of the volume is 8 * ((d/2)3) = d3, and the surface area is 8 * (6(d/2)2) = 12d2.Therefore, even though the volume stayed constant, the sum of the surface area increased when I cut a larger cube into small cubes. The increase in surface area will be larger and larger as the cube is cut into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore a sugar cube always has less surface area than an equal mass of sugar crystals.Granulated sugar has more surface area than a sugar cube.
Is sugar a count noun?
The noun sugar is an uncountable noun as a word for a substance (a syrup or granular substance). Units of sugar are expressed as a pound of sugar, a cup of sugar, a bag of sugar, etc.The noun sugar is a count noun as a word for 'types of' or 'kinds of' sugar, for example, The sugars we use are cane, corn, and honey.
