Question

Which of the following are true for hydrophilic solutions?
(A) They do not require electrolytes for stability
(B) Their coagulation is irreversible
(C) Their surface tension is usually lower than water
(D) Their viscosity is of the order of water

Answer 1

Hint: A solution is a form of homogenous combination made up of two or more components in chemistry. A solute is a material that is dissolved in another material, known as a solvent, in such a combination. The mixing of a solution takes place at a scale where the effects of chemical polarity are present, resulting in solvation-specific interactions.

Complete answer:
Water attracts a hydrophilic molecule or material. Water is a polar molecule that dissolves other polar and hydrophilic compounds as a solvent. Many chemicals in biology are hydrophilic, allowing them to distribute throughout a cell or organism. Water is used as a solvent by all cells to form the cytosol solution. Many chemicals are found in cytosol, the majority of which are hydrophilic on at least one side of the molecule. This guarantees that it can be readily moved around the cell. Hydrophobic substances, or those that oppose water, are often transferred through and between cells with the help of hydrophilic proteins or structures.
A hydrophilic colloid, also known as a hydrocolloid, is a colloid system composed of hydrophilic polymers distributed in water. Hydrocolloids can be reversible or irreversible in nature (single-state). Agar, for example, is a reversible hydrocolloid of seaweed extract that can exist in both a gel and a liquid form and may be heated or cooled to switch between the two phases.
Water-loving colloids are known as hydrophilic colloids. Water is drawn to the colloid particles. Reversible sols is another name for them. Due to the breakdown of the water molecules' cohesive attractive interactions near the surface, their surface tension is generally lower than water. The hydrophilic sols have a substantially greater viscosity than the dispersion medium.
As a result, for hydrophilic fluids, choices A and C are correct.

Note:
Natural sources are used to make a lot of hydrocolloids. Gelatin, for example, is made from the breakdown of proteins from cows and fish, whereas pectin comes from citrus peel and apple pomace. Medical dressings based on hydrocolloids are used to heal skin and wounds.
