The example of heteropolar sol is?

The example of heteropolar sol is?

  • A. Starch sol in water
  • B. Rubber sol in water
  • C. Protein sol in water
  • D. Sulphur sol

Step-by-step solution

Heteropolar sols are lyophobic colloids with electrically charged particles, typically stabilized by adsorbed ions. Sulphur sol is a classic example of a heteropolar sol, whereas starch, rubber, and protein sols are lyophilic (homopolar) colloids where the dispersed phase has affinity for the dispersion medium.
