At high concentration of soap in water, soap behaves as ____________. (i) molecular colloid (ii) associated colloid (iii) macromolecular colloid (iv) lyophilic colloid
option 2) There are some substances which at low concentrations behave as normal strong electrolytes, but at higher concentrations exhibit colloidal behaviour due to the formation of aggregates. The aggregated particles thus formed are called micelles. These are also known as associated colloids. The formation of micelles takes place only above a particular temperature called Kraft temperature (Tk) and above a particular concentration called critical micelle concentration (CMC). One has to note that in case of soap if it is present in high concentration in water then also it acts as associated colloid.
