Question

difference between lyophilic and lyophobic colloid??​

Answer 1

Answer:

i) Lyophilic Colloids: These are the colloidal solutions in which dispersed particles have strong affinity for dispersion medium. These sols are stable and reversible. Some examples are starch, gum, gelatin sol etc

ii) Lyophobic Colloids: There the dispersed phase has no affinity for the dispersion medium.

Thank you

Answer 2

Explanation:

Lyophilic colloids or lyophilic sols – solvent-loving. In case of water as a dispersion medium, they are known as hydrophilic.

Lyophobic colloids or lyophobic sols – solvent-hating. When water is a dispersion medium, they are known as hydrophobic.
