What happens to vapor pressure if sugar is added to a solution?

When you add a teaspoon of honey to water with vapor pressure, it will reduce the vapor pressure. The sugar in the honey leads to the pressure going down.


Is water more dense than honey?

No honey is more dense.Honey is a supersaturated liquid, containing more sugar than the water can typically dissolve at ambient temperatures. At room temperature, honey is a supercooled liquid, in which the glucose will precipitate into solid granules. This forms a semisolid solution of precipitated glucose crystals in a solution of fructose and other ingredients.With respect to carbohydrates, honey is mainly fructose (about 38.5%) and glucose (about 31.0%).So, it is about 36% denser than water.


Why honey does not dissolve in water?

Honey and water should be considered miscible. I.E. They should mix at any and amounts of honey and water, although in some cases honey may be supersaturated, and tend to crystallize when cooled independent of adding water. Since honey is very viscous, and heavier than water, it may be easiest to heat your solution to near the boiling point of water before mixing. Then you can cool it to the desired temperature after mixing. Try your solution in the microwave. You could also try just letting your water/honey mixture sit undisturbed at room temperature for a few days or weeks.
