Question

'The water is able to dissolve only up to a certain amount of sugar particles. Once its maximum capacity for dissolving the sugar particles is reached, it does not dissolve any more of them. In other words, there is no space left between the water particles to accommodate any more sugar particles. So, any additional sugar added simply settles at the bottom of the container.'

Considering this statement:

Will the water level increase when the sugar starts settling

Answer 1

Once certain amount of water reaches its maximum capacity of dissolving sugar is called its saturation point. After this point, if we add more sugar it will simply settles down at the bottom of the container and level of water will increase.
