Question
What happens when a lyophilic sol is added to a lyophobic sol?
(i) Lyophobic sol is protected.
(ii) Lyophilic sol is protected.
(iii) Film of lyophilic sol is formed over lyophobic sol.
(iv) Film of lyophobic sol is formed over lyophilic sol.
Solution
(i) Lyophobic sol is protected.
(iii) Film of lyophilic sol is formed over lyophobic sol.
Explanation:
Lyophilic colloids have a unique property of protecting lyophobic colloids. When a lyophilic sol is added to the lyophobic sol, the lyophilic particles form a layer around lyophobic particles and thus protect the latter from electrolytes. Lyophilic colloids used for this purpose are called protective colloid.
