If I wanted to envision what 1g of sugar looked like as a sugar cube, what dimensions would it have?

Please give me some math, or I'll likely just think you are guessing!

You just need the density of sugar. That will give you the weight/vol.
Divide 1g by the density will give you the volume of 1g.

Then take the cube root of the volume to find the size of the cube.

I search and found the density to be 1.6 g/cm^3

so, if it were 1 g/cm^ the cube would be 1 cm on a side
if it were 2 g/cm^ the cube would be (1/2)^(1/3) on a side.

Just calculate (1/1.6)^(1/3) = s length of side of your cube in cm.

We need the density of a sugar cube to help you.
