In a sucrose molecule, the area near the hydrogen is positive, and the area near the oxygen is negative. When sugar is placed in water, the positive part of the water molecule, the hydrogen part, is attracted to the negative area of a sucrose molecule, the oxygen part. The negative area of the water molecule, the oxygen part, is attracted to the positive part of the sucrose molecule, the hydrogen part. When the attraction between water and sucrose overcomes the attraction between sucrose and other sucrose, the whole sucrose molecules will separate from one another. When this happens, the sugar dissolves in the water. The sucrose molecule does not come apart into individual carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms.
