40 COMPREHENSIVE PRACTICAL CHEMISTRY, & Determine the calorimeter constant (W) of calorimeter (polythene bottle), THEORY In order to determine the calorimeter constant, a known volume of hot water at a know, temperature is added to a known volume of water taken in the calorimeter at room temperature Since energy is conserved, the heat gained by the calorimeter and the cold water must be equa] to the heat lost by hot water. Ift,, t, and ¢, are the temperatures of, cold water, hot water anj mixture respectively and m,, m, and m, are the masses of calorimeter, cold water and hot water respectively, then we can write mC ,(t, —t,) + m,C(t, —t,) = mgClt, - ts) Here C, is the heat capacity of calorimeter and C is the heat capacity of water.

Lyophilie Sols Inthis type of colloidal solutions, the disperse phase has great affinity for the dispersion medium. In such colloids, the dispersed phase does not get easily precipitated and the sols are quite stable. The solids obtained after evaporation may be reconverted to the sol state by simply agitating them with the dispersion medium. Examples of lyophilic sols include sols of gum, gelatine, starch, proteins and certain polymers in organic solvents. Such sols are called reversible sols. If water is the dispersion medium, these are called hydrophilic sols. 2. Lyophobic Sols In this type of sols, disperse phase has little affinity for the dispersion medium. These sols are relatively less stable than lyophilic sols, These sols are easily precipitated (or coagulated) on the addition of small amounts of electrolytes, by heating or by shaking. These are irreversible as their precipitated mass cannot be brought back into the colloidal state by simply shaking them up with the dispersion medium. Examples of lyophobic sols include sols of metals, and their insoluble compounds like sulphides and oxides. They need stabilizing substances for pres- ervation. If water is the dispersion medium, these are known as hydrophobic sols. @ To prepare colloidal solution (sol) of starch.
