A lyophilic sol is stable due to the charge and the hydration of sol particles. ... On the other hand, a lyophobic sol is stable due to the charge only and hence can be easily coagulated by adding small amount of an electrolyte

Answer:
(1) Lyophilic colloids : The sols in which there is a strong affinity between the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium are called lyophilic colloids.
(2) Lyophobic colloids : The sols in which there is little affinity between the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium are called lyophobic colloids.
