Question

The process of removing dissolved impurities from a collidal system by means of diffusion

Answer 1

Dialysis is the process which is used for the separation of crystalloids from a colloid by filtration or diffusion through parchment paper or animal membrane. The apparatus employed for this purpose is called dialyser. This process is based on the fact that membranes contain very small pores through which only dissolved molecules and ions of the true solution can pass readily.
