Explain Bredig’s arc method.
Advertisements
Solution
- Colloidal sols can be prepared by electrical disintegration using Bredig’s arc method.
- This process involves vaporization as well as condensation.
- Colloidal sols of metals such as gold, silver, platinum can be prepared by this method.
- In this method, an electric arc is struck between electrodes of metal immersed in the dispersion medium.
- The intense heat produced vapourizes the metal which then condenses to form particles of colloidal sol.
