4. Dialysis
It is Separation of colloidal particles from molecular
particles using semi permeable membrane.
=> At start: molecular particles diffuse through the semi
permeable membrane
diffuse from compartment A to B but colloidal
material is retained in compartment A
=> At Equilibrium molecular (sub colloidal material) is
distributed equally on both sides of the membrane.
=> By removing the liquid in compartment B & adding
new liquid and so on we can get pure colloidal
material in A purified from sub colloidal contaminants
7. Gold number
Is the minimum Wt (mg) of the protective colloid (hydrophilic) required to prevent a color
change from red to violet in 10ml of a gold sol on addition of 1ml 10% NaCl solution.
As gold no. increased → Effectives
❖ The smaller the gold number, the greater the protective action.
1- Gelatin has a very small gold number → good protection
2- Egg albumin and gum acacia → less effective
3- Potato starch → little protective action as gold no is very high
