Which from following statements is NOT true about lyophilic colloids?

Which from following statements is NOT true about lyophilic colloids?
  1. The particles of dispersed phase have greater affinity for the dispersion medium.
  2. These are reversible.
  3. These are self stabilized.
  4. Coagulation occurs even by adding very small amount of electrolytes.

Solution

In lyophilic colloids, the particles of dispersed phase have a great affinity for the dispersion medium. They are reversible and self-stabilized colloids. Addition of large amount of electrolytes causes precipitation or coagulation of lyophilic sols.
