boiling water will have a more painful effect. the sugar solution will boil at a lower temperature than the pure water. thats coz the sugar acts as an impurity in the water and lowers its boiling pt (as a matter of fact it boils over a range of temperatures, but all of those temperatures will be lower than the boiling point of water).
thus, with the boiling water, u get burnt "more", and that hurts more, too!

BOILING SUGAR IS MORE PAINFUL,AS THE SUGAR TAKES LONGER TO COOL ON THE SKIN, THEREFOR BURNING YOU MORE INTENSELY.
