Question:

A saturated solution of sucrose (C12H22O11) is made by dissolving excess table sugar in a flask of water. There are 50 g of un-dissolved sucrose crystals at the bottom of the flask in contact with the saturated solution. The flask is stoppered and set aside. A year later a single large crystal of mass 50 g is at the bottom of the flask. Explain how this experiment provides evidence for a dynamic equilibrium between the saturated solution and the un-dissolved solute?
