hey i need to make a project on the topic-to detect the presence of adulterants in sugar.

Hi Yashshri,
For the project, you could follow these guidelines which are:
· Give a brief introduction of adulterants.
· Kind of adulterants
· Adulterants in sugar
Commonly used adulterants are very small white stones, bone powder, chalk powder, alum, etc .
To start with you can test:
1. Solubility test-if do not dissolve and remain in he same form. It can be stone .
2. Insoluble part can be test for carbonates.(dilute HCl test)
· In the end you can write the negative effects of adulterants.
Hope it helps.
Best of Luck!
