Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Dissolving sugar in water is an example of a physical change.

A chemical change produces new chemical products. In order for sugar in water to be a chemical change, something new would need to result. If you evaporate the water from a sugar-water solution, you're left with sugar.

No, sugar dissolving in water is a physical change. A chemical change would have changed the whole thing from sugar
