    Hi There,
    The surface tension in water is due to the hydrogen bonds in it.When sugar is added to it,the dissolution process occurs which leads to the breaking of the hydrogen bonds in water by the hydration energy generated by the interaction of sugar and water.Therefore sugar reduces the surface tension in water.
    Thanks
