Passage-1 (for questions 21 to 23) Lyophilic colloidal sols are much more stable than lyopholic colloidal sols. This is due to the extensirely salvation of lyophic colloidal sols, which forms a protective layer out side it & thus prevents it from forming associated colloids. Lyophilic colloidal sols also protect lyophobic colloidal sols from precipitation by the action of electrolytes. This is due to formation of a protective layer by lyophilic sols out side lyophobic sols. Lyophilic sols are also called as protective sols. Gelatin (lyophilic) protect gold sol (lyophobic) from coagulation on addition of sodium chloride solution. Protective powers of different colloidal sols are measured in terms of gold number. It is defined as the amount of protective sol in milligram that prevent the cagulation of 10 ml of a given gold sol on adding 1 ml of 10 % solution of sodium chloride. Thus smaller the gold number of a lyophilic sol, the greater is the protective power. 21. 0.025 gm of starch sol is required to prevent cagulation of 10 ml gold sol when 1 ml of 10 % NaCl solution is added. What is gold number of starch sol (A) 0.025 (B) 2.5 105 (C) 0.25 (D) 25 22. Gold number of haemoglobin is 0.03. Hence 100 ml of gold sol will require haemoglobin so that gold is not cagulated by 1 ml of 10 % NaCl solution (A) 0.03 mg (B) 30 mg (C) 0.30 mg (D) 3 mg 23. [Ag]I Colloidal sol can be coagulated by addition of a suitable cation. 1 mol of [AgI]I requires mol of AgNO3, Pb(NO3)2 & Fe(NO3)3 as (A) 1, 1, 1, (B) 1, 2, 3 (C) 1, 1/2 , 1/3 (D) 6, 3, 2

Passage-II (for questions 24 to 26) If a pair of immiscible liquids such as olive oil and water are mixed and shaken vigorously, a dispersion of very fine droplets of one liquid in the other will result. Such a dispersion is termed emulsion. One of the components in emulsion is water and the other one an oily substance immiscible in water. Emulsion droplets are bigger than sol particles (106 m) and can be seen under an ordinary microscope or sometimes even with a magnifying glass. Emulsions resemble lyophobic sols in some of the properties. Emulsion can be identified by dye-test. 24. In the following emulsion
