Which of the following is character of lyophilic colloid?

Options

  1. AParticles of dispersed phase have no affinity for dispersion medium.
  2. BParticles easily detected under ultramicroscope.
  3. CAddition of large amount of electrolyte causes precipitation.
  4. DThese are irreversible colloids.

Correct answer

C. Addition of large amount of electrolyte causes precipitation.

Step-by-step solution

In lyophilic colloid, the particles of dispersed phase have a great affinity for the dispersion medium. The particles are not easily visible even under ultramicroscope. Lyophilic colloids are reversible colloids.
