Which one of the following statements is FALSE for hydrophilic sols?

Multiple Choice Options

  • A They do not require electrolytes for stability.
  • B The sols cannot be easily coagulated.
  • C These sols are reversible in nature.
  • D Their viscosity is of the order of that of H2O.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

1. Viscosity of hydrophilic sol > viscosity of H2O

2. Hydrophilic sol is more stable so can't be easily coagulated.

3. Hydrophilic sols are reversible sols.

4. No electrolytes are required to stabilise hydrophilic sol.
