Answers
Answer:
________
Lyophobic colloids are liquid hating colloids (Lyo means solvent and phobic means hating). When these colloids are mixed with the suitable liquid, a very weak force of attraction exists between colloidal particles and liquid and system does not pass into colloidal state readily.

e.g. Metal Sulphide sols
• What is the difference between Lyophilic and lyophobic colloids?
Lyophilic : Reversible, because on evaporating the liquid, the residue left will passes into colloidal state on addition of liquid.
Lyophobic : Irreversible, because on evaporating the liquid, the residue left cannot be converted into solution on mere addition of liquid.
