Multiple choice chemistry nature of matter heterogenous mixture - colloidal solution and its properties suspensions and colloids mixtures

Which one of the following colloidal solutions is positive sol.?

  1. Blood

  2. Clay soil

  3. Smoke

  4. Gelatin in strong acidic solution

A Correct answer
Explanation

Blood is a colloidal solution where the dispersed particles (proteins like hemoglobin) carry a positive charge in the physiological pH range, making it a positive sol.

In the preparation of AgI sol, the excess of $AgNO _{3}$ is added to potassium iodide solution. The particles of the sol will acquire:

  1. negative charge

  2. positive charge

  3. no charge

  4. unpredictable

B Correct answer
Explanation

When AgNO3 is in excess, the AgI particles adsorb Ag+ ions from the solution, forming an AgI/Ag+ layer, which gives the colloidal particles a positive charge.

Which statement(s) are correct about colloidal state?

  1. The sol particles acquire charge due to preferential adsorption of ions.

  2. Sol particles do not show cataphoresis at isoelectric point.

  3. The stability of protein sol is minimum at its isoelectric point.

  4. The stability of protein sol is due to the presence of charge as well as their extensive solvation nature.

A,B,C,D Correct answer
Explanation
When two or more ions are present in the dispersion medium, then the colloidal particles absorb preferentially positive or negative ions present in the dispersion medium.

Isoelectric point (pI or IEP) is the pH of a solution or dispersion at which the net charge on the molecules or colloidal particles is zero.

Most globular proteins have minimum solubility at or near their isoelectric point.

The stability of the protein solution is normally because of the presence of charge as well as their extensive solvation nature.

So all the statements are correct.

The colligative properties of a colloidal solution compared to the solution of non-electrolyte of same concentration will be:

  1. same

  2. higher

  3. lower

  4. higher or lower
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The colligative properties of a colloidal solution compared to the solution of non-electrolyte of same concentration will be lower as the colloidal solutions are stable due to the presence of charge particle ans also sometimes coagulation happens which reduces the number of particles in the solution and hencem the colligative property.

All colloidal solutions show:

  1. very high osmotic pressure.

  2. high osmotic pressure.

  3. low osmotic pressure.

  4. no osmotic pressure.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

All colloidal solutions behave normally as electrolytes and the movement of solvent from solvent to colloidal solution is very less as the concentration gradient for solvent movement is not significant. hence, colloidal solutions show low osmotic pressure.


Hence,option C is correct.
