Beaker A; because solutes dissolve faster in agitated water
Beaker A; because solutes dissolve faster in agitated water

Beaker B; because solutes dissolve faster in still water

The correct response is:

Beaker A; because solutes dissolve faster in agitated water.

Stirring the water in Beaker A increases the movement of the water molecules, allowing the sugar to disperse more quickly and dissolve faster compared to the still water in Beaker B.
