“Imagine you are trying to dissolve sugar in water to make lemonade. Explain how using warmer water would affect the rate at which the sugar dissolves, compared to using cold water. Why does this happen? You have two identical glasses of water. In one glass, you add a sugar cube. In the other glass, you add the same amount of sugar, but it is granulated (small crystals). Explain which glass of water will dissolve the sugar faster and why.”
