The stability of a lyophobic colloid is due to
adsorption of covalent molecules on the colloid
the size of the particles
the charge on the particles
Tyndall effect
Which of the following cations will have minimum flocculation value for arsenic sulphide sol?
Na+
Mg2+
Ca2+
Al3+
D.
Al3+
The minimum amount of an electrolyte that, must be added to one litre of a colloidal solution so as to bring about complete coagulation is called the coagulation or flocculation value of the electrolyte. Greater is the valency of the coagulating or the flocculating ion, smaller is the quantity of the electrolyte which is required to coaguate a definite amount of coagulating ion Thus for coagulation of negatively charged arsenious sulphide solution, trivalent cations (Al3+) are far more effective than divalent (Ba2+) cations which in turn are more effective than monovalent (Na+ ) cations Thus. the order of flocculating value tor arsenic sulphide solution Na+ > Ca2+ = Mg2+ > Al3+.
Adsorption theory is applicable for
homogeneous catalysis
heterogeneous catalysis
autocataylsis
induced catalysis
All colloidal dispersions have

is insoluble in water
is easy to spray at high altitude
A crystalline solid X reacts with dil. HCl to liberate a gas Y. Y decolourises acidified KMnO4. When a gas 'Z' is slowly passed into an aqueous solution of Y, colloidal sulphur is obtained X and Z could be respectively

Na2SO4, H2S
Na2SO3, H2S
Na2SO4, SO2
Gold sol is not
