How do micelles differ from a normal colloidal solutions ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Some substances which at low concentrations behave as normal strong electrolytes, but at high concentrations exhibit colloidal behaviour due to formation of ag gregates. The aggregate particles thus formed are called micelles.
`to` These are also known as associated colloids.
`to` These colloids have both lyophilic and lyophobic parts.
`to` Micelles may contain as many as 100 or more of normal molecules.
`to` On dilution these colloids revert back to individual electrolytes.
