A physical property can be observed and do not change the identity of the substance.

So for one of them, you could say something along the lines of "The shape of the sugar changed." You could say this because it does not change the identity of the sugar, and the physical properties of the sugar itself have changed.

For the other, you could say something along the lines of "The mass of the sugar would change." This would also work because when sugar is dissolving, it loses more and more sugar after a while, thus reducing the mass.

Note: Please feel free to tell me if you think I messed up on any of these. I also want to learn more about this and want to be as accurate as possible. Have a good day!
