  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    In Bredig's arc method, an electric arc is struck between the metal electrodes under the surface of water containing some stabilizing agent. The process involves:

    Solution
    In Bredig's arc method, an electric arc is struck between electrodes of the metal immersed in the dispersion medium. The intense heat produced vapourises the metal, which then condenses to form particles of colloidal size.

    This process involves dispersion as well as condensation.

    Colloidal sols of metals such as gold, silver, platinum, etc., are prepared by this method.

    Hence, the correct answer is option $$\text{C}$$.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Match the column I with column II with respect to applications of properties of colloids in different fields and mark the appropriate choice. 
    Column IColumn II
    (A) Coagulation(i) Colloidal medicines
    (B) Adsorption(ii) Photographic films
    (C) Electrophoresis(iii) Sewage disposal
    (D) Emulsions(iv) Smoke precipitator
    Solution

    In water treatment, coagulation flocculation involves the addition of polymers that clump the small, destabilized particles together into larger aggregates so that they can be more easily separated from the water.

    Medicines in colloidal form are easily absorbed by the body tissues and hence are more effective.

    Electrostatic precipitators are highly efficient filtration devices that minimally impede the flow of gases through the device, and can easily remove fine particulate matter such as dust and smoke from the air stream.

    Photographic emulsion. Photographic emulsion is a light-sensitive colloid used in film-based photography. 

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The separation of an emulsion into its constituent liquids is known as:
    Solution
    • Demulsification is the breaking of a crude oil emulsion into oil and water phases. 
    • Demulsification is used to separate various mixtures like water in oil and oil in water etc.
    • It completely separates the constituent liquids and hence is the reverse of emulsification.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Why is ferric hydroxide colloid positively charged when prepared by adding ferric chloride to hot water?
    Solution

    The adsorption of positively charged Fe3+ ions by the sol of hydrated ferric oxide results in positively charged colloid.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Which of the following statements given about emulsions is incorrect?
    Solution
    • Emulsions are liquid-liquid colloidal systems, i.e., the dispersion of finely divided droplets in another liquid.
    •  If a mixture of two immiscible or partially miscible liquids is shaken, a coarse dispersion of one liquid in the other is obtained which is called an emulsion.
    • In emulsions, the droplets present are often negatively charged and can be precipitated by electrolytes.
    • Emulsions can be broken down into its constituents by heating, freezing, centrifuging etc.
    • Emulsions being a colloid shows both Tyndall effect and Brownian motion.
    Hence, option $$B$$ is incorrect.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The ratio of the number of moles of $$AgNO_{3}$$, $$Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$$ and $$Fe(NO_{3})_{3}$$ required for coagulation of a definite amount of a colloidal sol of silver iodide prepared by mixing $$AgNO_{3}$$ with excess of KI will be :
    Solution
    With axcess of $$KI$$, colloidal particles will be $$[AgL]I^-$$
    $$\xrightarrow [ 1\ mol ]{ [AgL]I^- } +\xrightarrow [ 1\ mol ]{ AgNO_3 } \rightarrow AgI \downarrow +AgI \downarrow +NO_3^-$$

    $$\xrightarrow [ 2\ mol ]{ 2[AgL]I^- } +\xrightarrow [ 1\ mol ]{Pb(NO_3)_2 } \rightarrow 2AgI \downarrow +PbI_2 \downarrow +2NO_3^-$$

    $$\underset { \begin{matrix} 3mole \\ 1mole \end{matrix} }{ 3[AgI]I^- } +\underset { \begin{matrix} 1mole \\ mole \end{matrix} }{ Fe(NO_3)_3 }  \rightarrow 3AgI \downarrow +FeI_2 \downarrow +3NO_3^-$$
    $$\therefore$$ Molar ratio required for coagulation of same amount of $$[AgI]I^-$$ is $$=1:\dfrac{1}{2}:\dfrac{1}{3}=6:3:2$$
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Colloidal solutions of metals like gold can be prepared when their salt solutions react with certain substances like $$SnCl_{2}$$, formaldehyde, phenyl hydrazine, etc.
    2$$AuCl_{3}$$ + 3$$SnCl_{2}$$ $$\rightarrow$$ 3$$SnCl_{4}$$ + $$2Au_{sol}$$
    The above method is an example of:
    Solution
    • A colloid is a heterogeneous system in which one substance is dispersed (dispersed phase) as very fine particles in another substance called dispersion medium.
    • Colloidal solutions of metals like gold can be prepared when their salt solutions react with certain substances like $$SnCl_2$$, formaldehyde, phenylhydrazine.
    In the given reaction,
    $$2AuCl_3 + 3SnCl_2 \rightarrow 3SnCl_4 + 2Au_{sol}$$
    The oxidation state of $$Sn$$ is changing from -2 to -4. So,it is gaining electrons and hence the method is the reduction method.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    When a small quantity of $$FeCl_{3}$$ solution is added to the fresh precipitate of $$Fe(OH)_{3}$$, a colloidal sol is obtained. The process through which this sol is formed is known as:
    Solution
    • Peptization may be defined as the process of converting a precipitate into colloidal sol by shaking it with dispersion medium in the presence of a small amount of electrolyte.
    • The electrolyte used for this purpose is called a peptizing agent.
    • When a small quantity of $$FeCl_3$$ solution is added to fresh precipitate of $$Fe(OH)_3$$ the precipitate is converted into colloidal sol, which is nothing but the process of peptization.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Which of the following is not an example of an emulsifying agent?
    Solution
    • Emulsions are liquid-liquid colloidal systems, i.e., the dispersion of finely divided droplets in another liquid.
    •  If a mixture of two immiscible or partially miscible liquids is shaken, a coarse dispersion of one liquid in the other is obtained which is called emulsion.
    • Emulsions of oil in water are unstable and sometimes they separate into two layers on standing.
    • The emulsifying agent forms an interfacial film between suspended particles and the medium, which stabilises the Emulsion.
    • Examples of emulsifying agents are proteins, gums, natural and synthetic soaps,heavy metal salts of fatty acids, long chain alcohols, lampblack.
    • Here, electrolyte is not an emulsifying agent and hence is the correct option.
      • Question 10
        1 / -0
        Which of the following is not a correct match?
        Solution
        • Emulsions are liquid-liquid colloidal systems, i.e., the dispersion of finely divided droplets in another liquid.

        • If a mixture of two immiscible or partially miscible liquids is shaken, a coarse dispersion of one liquid in the other is obtained which is called an emulsion.

        • Generally, there are two types of emulsions:
        • Oil in water type - Vanishing creams, Milk, etc.
        • Water in Oil type - Cream, Butter, etc.

        • Hence, option A is not a correct match.
