Question
A student carries out an inquiry involving the dissolution of sugar in water at different temperatures. The student prepares four cups, each containing 100 mL of water that has been heated to distinct temperatures. Subsequently, she adds 10 grams of granulated sugar to each cup. After allowing time for the sugar to dissolve, she notes the duration it takes for dissolution in each cup. The image presents her findings.
The image shows four cups, each containing 100 milliliters of water, and a timer under each cup. From left to right, the first cup has a temperature of 72°C and the timer shows 4 seconds. The second cup has a temperature of 95°C and the timer shows 2 seconds. The third cup has a temperature of 45°C and the timer shows 7 seconds. The fourth cup has a temperature of 64°C and the timer shows 5 seconds.
Which conclusion can be drawn from the results?

Responses
The lower the temperature of the water, the quicker the solute will dissolve.
The lower the temperature of the water, the quicker the solute will dissolve.
The increased amount of solute added to the water will lead to a lengthier duration for the solute to dissolve.
The increased amount of solute added to the water will lead to a lengthier duration for the solute to dissolve.
The higher the water temperature, the faster the solute will dissolve.
The higher the water temperature, the faster the solute will dissolve.
The less solute that is added to the water, the longer it will take the solute to dissolve.
The less solute that is added to the water, the longer it will take the solute to dissolve.

Based on the results of the student's inquiry, the correct conclusion is:
**The higher the water temperature, the faster the solute will dissolve.**
This conclusion is supported by the observation that the cups with higher temperatures (95°C and 72°C) exhibit shorter dissolution times (2 seconds and 4 seconds, respectively) compared to the cups with lower temperatures (64°C and 45°C) which have longer dissolution times (5 seconds and 7 seconds, respectively).
