Colloids are classified into multi-molecular, macro-molecular and associated colloids.(a) True(b) FalseThis question was addressed to me in an international level competition.My question is based upon Surface Chemistry topic in portion Surface Chemistry of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

The correct choice is (a) True

For explanation I would say: Based on the nature of DISPERSED phase, colloids are classified into multi-molecular, macro-molecular and associated colloids. In multi-molecular colloids a large NUMBER of atoms aggregate to form a particle of colloidal size, in macro-molecular colloids molecules dissolve in SUITABLE solvents and GIVE rise to particles of colloidal size. Colloids which behave as a normal strong ELECTROLYTE at low concentration but exhibits colloidal properties at higher concentration are known as associated colloids.
