Which of the following is true for a multimolecular colloid?
They have size in the colloidal range.
Formed by a large number of atoms or smaller molecules of a substance aggregating together on dissolution.
Examples of multimolecular colloids include sulphur sol containing many S8 sulphur molecules.
All of the above.
Multimolecular Colloids
On dissolution, a large number of atoms or smaller molecules of a substance aggregate together to form species having size in the colloidal range .
Examples:
1. A gold sol may contain particles of various sizes having many atoms.
2. Sulphur sol consists of particles containing thousand or more of S8 sulphur molecules.
Hence option 4 is correct.
