Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Sugar is a polar crystalline substance. The sugar crystal is capable of dissolving in water since it is polar.

When sugar dissolves in water, a sugar solution is formed. If I want to separate the sugar from the water in the solution, I have to boil the solution to a very high temperature.

When I do that, the water in the sugar solution is driven off and the pure sugar crystal is left behind.
