y NaCl is more effective than sucrose in lowering Aw? in Chemistry Posted March 11, 2008 why is salt more effective than sugar in lowering water activity? All the webby kept saying that salt have higher water binding capacity.. but doesn't states why.. I've been searching the net for like an hr. cause a+ binds to 6 H20 and Cl- binds with 5.. and they are ionic bond... that's what i find out only.. but how to compare with sucrose? 0
