Heating sugar is a thermal decomposition reaction; a chemical equation is not suitable.
The resulting substances are water, carbon dioxide and caramel (a complex material). Continuing the heating of caramel lead also to water and carbon dioxide.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O
Six carbons, 12 H's, and 18 oxygens on each side.
Just thinking about it causes neurons to burn glucose!

Sucrose is burned to produce carbon dioxide and water. what is the balanced equation?
The chemical equation is:C12H22O11 + 12 O2 = 12 CO2 + 11 H2O
What is the chemical equation for the compound sugar water?
SugarGlucose is a sugar monosaccharide (monomer): C6H12O6Table sugar (sucrose) is C12H22O11There are lots of sugars (monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccarhides). Glucose is one of the most important carbohydrates because it is used in cell respiration. All carbohydrates including sucrose are hydrolyzed in digestion - broken down to glucose. The splitting and transformation of glucose is what powers ATP production, which in turn supports cell activities.
Melting sugar cube is what change because the substance still is sugar?
Melting is a physical change; but when the temperature is sufficiently high sugar is thermally decomposed - and this is a chemical change.
A shorthand description of a chemical reaction using chemical formulas and symbols is a chemical what?
A chemical equation is a shorthand description of a chemical reaction.
A chemical reaction can be concisely represented by a chemical what?
A chemical reaction can be represented by a chemical equation.
Is cooking caramelized sugar a physical or chemical change?
Yes, as well as a chemical change. It clearly changes (white, granulated sugar and liquid to burned brown sugar and liquid to a sticky [and delicious] substance). It changes from a solution to a syrup!
What sugar is burned in the cell to produce energy?
The sugar that is burned in the cell to produce energy is glucose. Glucose has energy stored in it's chemical bonds and is used in cellular respiration.
Sucrose is burned to produce carbon dioxide and water. what is the balanced equation?
The chemical equation is:C12H22O11 + 12 O2 = 12 CO2 + 11 H2O
Does sugar have more hydrogen than fat?
Fat is not a chemical compound, so it does not have a chemical equation, so it does not have a measured amount of hydrogen. (Sugar has 12 hydrogen atoms.)

What is the chemical symbol for smoke bomb if sugar and KNO3 is mixed?
The usual chemical equation is 9.6KNO3 + C12H22O11 → 4.8K2CO3 + 7.2CO2 + 11H2O + 4.8N2.
Melting sugar cube is what change because the substance still is sugar?
Melting is a physical change; but when the temperature is sufficiently high sugar is thermally decomposed - and this is a chemical change.
A shorthand description of a chemical reaction using chemical formulas and symbols is a chemical what?
A chemical equation is a shorthand description of a chemical reaction.
A chemical reaction can be concisely represented by a chemical what?
A chemical reaction can be represented by a chemical equation.
Define chemical reaction and chemical equation?
We see the chemical reaction but we write the chemical equation.
How can the efficiency of a chemical reaction be expressed?
A chemical reaction is represented by a chemical equation.
What tells the story of a chemical reaction?
The written statement that shows a chemical reaction is called an "equation". The representation of each reactant is called its chemical formula.
