Colloidal State



Finely divided particles of any substance with diameters lying within 1 - 200 nm dispersed in any medium constitute what we term a colloidal system. 
A colloidal system is thus a two phase system consisting of a continuous phase or dispersion medium in which extremely minute particles, lying within the colloidal range, of second substance termed as discontinuous phase, are suspended.
In this chapter you learn about classification, preparation and properties of colloidal solutions which are explained in the following video. Have a look !!!!

Solutions - Solubility of solids in liquids

Identify the soluble compounds in water Solution s  of solids in solids (solid solutions) This type of solution is formed by mixing two solid components. For example, brass, bronze, monel metal and steel. Solid solutions are classified into two categories: substitutional solid solutions and interstitial solid solutions. l  Substitutional solid solutions  are formed by placing atoms of one kind into the place of other substance in its crystal lattice. Brass is a common example of the substitutional solid solution of copper and zinc. l  Interstitial solid solutions  are formed by placing atoms of one kind into the voids in the lattice of atoms of other substance. Tungsten carbide, an extremely hard substance, is a common example of interstitial solid solutions. S olubility  of solids in liquids  ( Saturated, unsaturated, supersaturated solutions) A solution which contains as much solute as it can be dissolve d  at a given temperature is called a sat...
