Explain the term Electrophoresis
Advertisements
उत्तर
Electrophoresis:
The movement of colloidal particles under the influence of an applied electric field is known as electrophoresis. Positively charged particles move to the cathode, while negatively charged particles move towards the anode. As the particles reach oppositely charged electrodes, they become neutral and get coagulated.

Assertion: An ordinary filter paper impregnated with collodion solution stops the flow of colloidal particles.
Reason: Pore size of the filter paper becomes more than the size of colloidal particle.
Assertion: Colloidal solutions do not show brownian motion.
Reason: Brownian motion is responsible for stability of sols.
Assertion: Coagulation power of Al3+ is more than Na+.
Reason: Greater the valency of the flocculating ion added, greater is its power to cause precipitation (Hardy Schulze rule).
