Molecules of sugar are attracted to each other and form crystals. if you place sugar in water, the crystals break apart, but the molecules remain the same kind of sugar. what can you infer about the bonds between atoms in a sugar molecule compared with the forces that attract sugar molecules to each other?

Explanation:

So here's the thing . Sugar molecule is a molecular solid . It a relatively weak molecule

We all know the formula of glucose ( which is a sugar type molecule ) which is C12 H22 O 11 . This is basically bonded together by dipole dipole forces ( remember that this force of attraction is weak ) .on the other hand you have the solution ( which is usually water) .water is held by strong attraction forces known as hydrogen bonding .since this type of bonding is greater than dipole dipole forces .therefore when glucose is dropped in water . water is easily able to obercome the forces that are keeping the glucose molecule intact . therefore the molecule dissolves and breaks into pieces. Hope this helps

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
