Which one of the following colloidal solutions is positive sol?

  1. Blood

  2. Clay soil

  3. Smoke

  4. Gelatin

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Colloidal particles always carry an electric charge. It is of two types: Positive and Negative.


Positively charged sols are mostly metal hydroxides whereas negatively charged sols are metal sols or metal sulphide sols. 


Among all the given options, gelatin is the correct answer.

The colloidal solution of gelatin is known as:

  1. solvent loving.

  2. reversible.

  3. hydrophilic.

  4. all of these.

D Correct answer
Explanation
Gelatin, can behave both as a sol and a gel. At high temperature and low concentration of gelatin, the colloid is a hydrosol, but at low temperature and high gelatin concentration, the hydrosol can change into a gel which is solvent loving and hydrophilic.

Which is not lyophilic colloid?

  1. Milk

  2. Gum

  3. Fog

  4. Blood

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Fog is not a lyophilic colloid. Fog is a colloidal solution of liquid in a gas in which liquid is the dispersed phase whereas gas is the dispersion medium. Fog is a colloidal solution of liquid in a gas in which liquid is the dispersed phase whereas gas is the dispersion medium.

Crystalloid and colloid differ with respect to:

  1. Tyndall effect

  2. particle size

  3. diffusion through animal or vegetable membrane

  4. number of particles per unit volume of solution

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A,B,C Correct answer
Explanation

Crystalloids are aqueous sollutions of salts and minerals that can be crystallized where as colloids can't be crystallized .

Tyndall effect is shown by colloids but not by crystalloids.
Colloids are bigger in size compared to crystalloids
Colloids are larger and diffuse slower than crystalloids and rate of diffusion is different for both.
Number of particles per unit volume is independent of the nature of particle and could be same.

Out of the following, which reaction gives a colloidal solution?

  1. $Cu + HgCl _{2}\rightarrow CuCl _{2} + Hg$
  2. $2HNO _{3} + 3H _{2}S\rightarrow 3S + 4H _{2}O + 2NO$
  3. $2Mg + CO _{2} \rightarrow 2MgO + C$
  4. $Cu + CuCl _{2}\xrightarrow {\text {in presence of excess of HCl}} Cu _{2}Cl _{2}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Similar to the previous question, the reaction of hydrogen sulfide with nitric acid produces sulfur, which forms a colloidal sol.
