Questions and Answers

What is the principle of dialysis?

  • Separation of colloidal particles based on electrical charges
  • Separation of particles based on their size and shape
  • Separation of particles based on their chemical properties
  • Separation of micromolecular impurities based on diffusibility (correct)
  • What is the purpose of stirring in dialysis?

  • To increase the concentration of colloidal particles
  • To change the pH of the solution

    Study Notes

    Dialysis

    • Colloidal particles are too large to pass through membranes like collodion or cellophane, but smaller molecules can.
    • Dialysis separates micromolecular impurities from colloidal dispersions based on diffusibility.
    • Stirring is necessary to maintain a high concentration gradient across the membrane, which hastens the process.

    Ultrafiltration

    • Uses pressure or suction to force solvent and small particles across a membrane while retaining larger colloidal particles.
    • Membrane filters with known pore sizes can determine colloid particle sizes.
    • Membrane permeability is influenced by factors like electrical repulsion and particle adsorption, affecting the correlation between particle and pore sizes.

    Electrodialysis

    • Applies an electric potential to accelerate the movement of ionic impurities through a dialyzing membrane.
    • Enhances purification speed, termed electrodecantation, by concentrating charged colloidal particles on one side of the membrane.
