Question 21 Mark
Write one property of colloids.
Answer
Colloid: A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture whose particles are not as small as solution but they are so small that cannot be seen by naked eye. When a beam of light is passed through a colloid then the path of the light becomes visible. For example milk, smoke etc.
Properties of a colloid:
  • A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture.
  • The size of particles of a colloid is too small to be individually seen by naked eyes. 
  • Colloids are big enough to scatter a beam of light passing through it and make its path visible. 
  • They do not settle down when left undisturbed, that is, a colloid is quite stable.
  • They cannot be separated from the mixture by the process of filtration. But, a special technique of separation known as centrifugation can be used to separate the colloidal particles.

Question 81 Mark
Which one amongst the following will show Tyndall effect?
Milk.
Answer
(b) milk and (d) starch solution show Tyndall effect because they are colloidal solution.
Whereas (a) salt solution and (c) copper sulphate solution are true solution. Their particle size is too small to scatter light. So they do not show Tyndall effect.

Question 191 Mark
When blue ink is heated, what do you think has got evaporated from the watch glass?
Answer
This is a experiment of separating dye from ink: Fill half a beaker with water and put a watch glass on the mouth of the beaker. Put few drops of ink on the watch glass. Now start heating the solution or mixture. after that the water evaporate continue heating till there is no further change in the watch glass. When the water is completely evaporated from the watch glass Dye is left in the watch glass.

Question 361 Mark
What happen, when?
light is passed through a colloidal solution?
Answer
When a beam of light is passed through a colloidal solution, then scattering of light is observed. This is known as the Tyndall effect. This scattering of light illuminates the path of the beam in the colloidal solution.

Question 371 Mark
What happen, when.
Electricity is passed through a colloidal solution?
Answer
The colloidal particles are charged and carry either a positive or negative charge. The dispersion medium carries an equal and opposite charge. This makes the whole system neutral. Under the influence of an electric current, the colloidal particles move towards the oppositely charged electrode. When they come in contact with the electrode, they lose their charge and coagulate.

Question 481 Mark
To obtain a solid from its solution, which technique is better, evaporation or crystallisation?
Answer
Crystallization is a process that separates a pure solid in the form of its crystals from a solution.
Crystallization is better than evaporation because during
Evaporation:
  1. Some solids decompose or some, like sugar may get charred on heating to dryness.
  2. Some impurities may remain dissolved in the solution even after.
