In a Solution i.e your tea, only so much sugar can Dissolve. If you put loads of sugar into your tea, it can become a saturated solution. This means that the excess molecules of the sugar have no more room to dissolve into the tea, therefore it just sets at the bottom like sand.
More Information:
It is possible that enough sugar was added to the tea to saturate it, at which point no more sugar would dissolve, but that takes a lot of sugar. So, it is more likely that more time was needed for the sugar to dissolve. This process can be hastened by inverting the sugar (by adding a bit of lemon juice and/or corn syrup [glucose])
Assuming that all of the sugar that could be dissolved, is dissolved at that temperature and pressure, it would be a super saturated solution.
all you have to do is add sugar into boiling water. the sugar will dissolve and make saturated sugar!!
Yes, the citric acidity almost breaks down the sugar particles, (despite a small amount of water that dilutes the lemon liquid). I hope this helps you in any way! Thank you.
Sugar cubes dissolve faster in tap water as compared to bottled water. Tap water typically contains more impurities and dissolved solids, which can help break down the sugar cubes more quickly. Bottled water usually has fewer impurities and dissolved solids, leading to a slower dissolution rate.
The stirring increases the collisions between solvent and solute particles so the solute (sugar) molecules become decomposed in a short time....

it is all about surface area. if you were to stir it the sugar crystals would have water on all sides, but when sitting in the bottom of a cup the water has to dissolve the crystals on the outside, and then it would keep going.
Well- sand drops to the bottom, so insoluble. Sugar dissolves in water- warm water dissolves it quicker (coffee, tea), oil sits in layer on the top so does not dissolve. Glass- well luckily glass is insoluble in water so coke and stuff like that can be contained in glass bottles. A purist who measures solubility in atoms or molecules per litre would argue that that all of the insoluble substances dissolve too some extent.
The rest of the sugar sinks to the bottom because the solvent has reached its capacity to dissolve the solute.

When hot water with dissolved sugar cools, the solubility of the sugar decreases, causing it to come out of solution. This process is known as crystallization, where the sugar molecules re-form into solid crystals at the bottom of the container.
Sugar dissolves in a liquid faster than salt does. The reason is that sugar is less dense as a solute than salt is, leading to it dissolving in the solvent faster as it would fit into the 'empty gaps' that the solvent has at a much faster rate, which is how substances dissolve.
One common method is to dissolve the mixture in water, as sugar will dissolve while sand will not. Then, the solution can be filtered to separate the sand particles. Finally, the water can be evaporated to leave behind the crystallized sugar.

Sugar cubes would dissolve faster when crushed rather than left whole, regardless of whether the water used is hot or cold. Crushing the sugar cubes increases the surface area of the sugar particles exposed to the water, allowing for quicker dissolution.
