How are colloids classified on the basis of interaction between dispersed phase and dispersion medium ? |
|
Answer» Lyophilic colloid: The colloidal solution in which the dispersed phase has great affinity to the dispersion medium is called as Lyophilic colloid or Lyophilic solution. Ex: Starch solution. The starch paste when dissolved in hot water , with stirring , the starch solution is formed. The starch particles (dispersed phase) has great affinity to water molecules (dispersion medium). So starch solution is a lyophilic solution or lyophilic colloid. Lyophilic colloid : The colloidal solution in which there exists not much affinity between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium, it is called a Lyophobic colloid or Lyophobic solution. Ex : Gold solution. Gold rods are placed in water containing alkali. Electric arc is applied between gold rods. The gold particles dissolves in water, to give gold solution. Gold particles (dispersed phase ) have not much affinity towards water (dispersion medium) . So this is a Lyophobic solution or Lyophobic colloid. |

How are colloids classified on the basis of the nature of interaction between a dispersed phase and a dispersion medium ? Describe an important characteristic of each class. Which of the sols need stabilising agents for preservation ? |
|
Answer» The colloids solution in which the dispersed phase has great affinity to the dispersion medium is called a Lyophilic colloid or Lyophilic solution. Ex : Starch solution. The starch paste when dissolved in hot water , with stirring , the starch solution is formed . The starch particles (dispersed phase) has great affinity to water molecules (dispersion medium ). So starch solution is a lyophilic solution or lyophilic colloid Lyophobic colloid : The colloidal solution in which there exists not much affinity between the dispersed phase and dispersion medium , it is called a Lyopholic colloid or Lyophobic solution. Ex : Gold solution. Gold rods are placed in water containing alkali. Electric arc is applied between gold rods. the gold particles dissolves in water, to give gold solution. Gold particles (dispersed phase) have not much affinity towards water (dispersion medium) . So this is a Lyophobic solution or Lyophobic colloid. Lyophilic colloidals are much stable than lyophobic colloids . A very amount of electrolyte can precipitate the lyophobic colloids. But their precipitation can be prevented by the addition of small amounts of lyophilic colloids. This lyopilic colloids form a protecting layer around the lyophobic colloids and protect them from precipitation (coagulation). Lyophilic colloids used for this purpose are called protective colloids. Ex : Gelatin, gum, starch sols are generally used as protective colloids. |

How emulsions are classified ? Give one example for each type of emulsion. |
|
Answer» Emulsion : The colloidal system in which a dispersion of finely divided droplets of a liquid in another liquid medium is called Emulsion. Ex : Milk In Milk, the droplets of liquid fat are dispersed in water. This is an example for oil in water type emulsion. Classification of emulsions : Emulsions are classified into two classes. These are a) oil in water (O/W) and b) water in oil (W/O), (O = Oil, W = Water). These emulsions are classified as such depending on which is dispersed phase and which is dispersion medium.a) Oil in Water (O/W) type emulsions : tn this type of emulsions, the disperse d phase is and the dispersion medium is water.Ex : Milk, liquid, fat (oil) in water. Vanishing cream, fat in water. b) Water in Oil (W/O) type emulsions : In this type of e mulsions, the dispersed phase is water and the dispersion medium is oil. Ex : Stiff greases water in lubrication oils Cod liver oil water in cod liver oil Cold cream water in fat of Emulsions : Emulsions are useful `to` In the digestion of fats in intestines. `to` In washing processes of clothes and crockery. `to` In the preparation of lotions, creams, ointments in pharmaceutical and cosmetics. `to` In the extraction of metals (froth flotation). `to` In the conversion of cream into butter by churning. `to` To break oil and water emulsions in oil wells. `to` In the preparation of oily type of drugs for easy adsorption to the body. |

The capacity of an ion to coagulate a colloidal solution depends onA. the magnitude of charge onlyB. its size onlyC. both the size of ion and the magnitude of charge in itD. both sign and magnitude of charge. |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D Different electolytes have different coagulation values.The coagulation behaviour of various elecrolytes was studied in detail by Hardy and Schulze. They found that `(1)` the ions carrying charge opposite to that of sol particles are effective in causing the coagulation of the sol. `(2)` coagulating power of an electrolyte is directly proportional to the fourth power of the valency of the ions causing coagulation. Thus,for the coagulation of sols carrying negative charge (like `As_(2)S_(3)` Sol), `Fe^(3+)` ions are more effective than `Ba^(2+)` or `Na^(+)` ions .Similarly, for the coagulation of sols carrying positive charge (such as `Fe(OH)_(3)` sol), `PO_(4)^(3-)` ions are more efficient than `SO_(4)^(2-)` or `Cl^(-)` ions. The two observations given above are collectively called Hardy-Schulze rule. These observations show that utmost care should be taken to keep sols away from environment containing even small amount of elecrolytes. |

Which of the following sols are relativity difficult to coagulate?A. (i), (iii)B. (ii), (iii)C. (i), (ii)D. (iii), (iv) |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B Because there are two factors which are responsible for the stability of lyophilic sols. These factors are the charge and solvation of the colloidal particles. When these two factors are removed a lyophilic sol can be coagulated. This is done (i) by adding an electrolyte and (ii) by adding a suitable solvent. When solvents such as alcohol and acetone are addsd to hydrophilic sols, the dehyration of dispersed phase occurs. Under this condition a small quantity of electrolyte can bring about coagulation. |

Which of the following is a protective colloid?A. GelatineB. Potato starchC. Egg albumenD. All of these |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - D Lyophilic sols are more stable than lyophobic sols. This is due to the fact that lyophilic colloids are extensively solvated, i.e. their colloidal particles are covered by a sheath of the liquid in which they are dispersed. 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 use for this purpose are called protective colloids. Gelatine, potato strach and egg albumen are typical examples of lyophilic colloids. |
