Question

Are multimolecular colloids lyophobic in nature?​

Answer 1

In these multi molecular colloids, the small molecules (or atoms) are held together by Van der Waal forces. Usually, these colloids have a lyophobic nature. This means these colloids have less or no attraction forces with the dispersion medium.

Types of colloids. Colloids are common in everyday life. Some examples include whipped cream, mayonnaise, milk, butter, gelatin, jelly, muddy water, plaster, colored glass, and paper. Every colloid consists of two parts: colloidal particles and the dispersing medium.
