Study Notes

Colloidal Particles and Brownian Movement

Brownian movement is the random and continuous motion of particles suspended in a fluid (liquid or gas) caused by the collision of particles with surrounding medium molecules.
This movement helps keep colloidal particles evenly distributed and prevents them from settling.

Tyndall Effect

The Tyndall effect is the scattering of light by colloidal particles dispersed within a transparent medium.
This effect is useful for distinguishing true solutions and colloidal suspensions.

Protective Colloids

A protective colloid is a type of colloid that helps prevent the coagulation or precipitation of dispersed particles in a solution.
It works by surrounding the dispersed particles with a layer of protective molecules, preventing them from coming into close contact with each other and aggregating.

Importance of Colloids in Living Organisms

Colloids play a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis in living organisms by facilitating cell regulation regarding fluids.
They also enable the movement of water, crucial for the survival of plants.

Applications of Osmosis

Osmosis can be used in treating water to make it drinkable.
It can be used in power generation using osmotic pressure to power turbines.

Dehydration Process Experiment

The experiment aims to determine the properties of colloids and how they function in physiological systems.
The experiment involves testing the curd formation in three test tubes with different substances.

Properties of Colloids

Colloids can be identified by their turbidity, as seen in the experiment.
The curd formation in test tube 2 (skim milk) suggests the presence of colloids.

Dialysis and Osmosis

Dialysis is a process where a semipermeable membrane separates substances with different concentrations of solutes based on their size.
Osmosis is a process where water or other solvents move through a semipermeable membrane from high concentration to low concentration solute.
Applications of dialysis include medical treatment to aid in removing waste from blood when the kidneys are no longer capable of doing it properly.
Applications of osmosis include treating water to make it drinkable and power generation using osmotic pressure to power turbines.
