Egg albumin was added to a 100 mL aqueous solution containing 5% (w/v) NaCl. This led to the creation of a lyophilic sol, where albumin molecules dispersed in water and the colloidal particles of albumin were stabilized through hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
So, the correct option is (A): Lyophilic sol.
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more components in which the particle size is smaller than 1 nm.
For example, salt and sugar is a good illustration of a solution. A solution can be categorized into several components.
The solutions can be classified into three types:
On the basis of the amount of solute dissolved in a solvent, solutions are divided into the following types:
