The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following forms an intrinsic colloid, we first need to understand what intrinsic (or lyophilic) colloids are. Intrinsic colloids are those that have a strong affinity for the dispersion medium (usually water) and can easily form stable colloidal solutions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of Intrinsic Colloids**: - Intrinsic colloids, also known as lyophilic colloids, are colloidal systems where the dispersed phase has a strong attraction to the dispersion medium. Examples include proteins, starch, and gelatin. 2. **Identify the Options**: - The question likely provides multiple options (though not listed here). Common examples of colloids include: - Starch in water - Silver iodide in water - Smoke in air - Milk 3. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Starch in water**: This forms a stable colloidal solution because starch is a lyophilic colloid. - **Silver iodide in water**: This is a lyophobic colloid, as it does not have a strong affinity for water and does not form a stable colloidal solution. - **Smoke in air**: This is an aerosol, which is a type of colloid but is not intrinsic. - **Milk**: This is an emulsion and can be considered a colloid, but it is not classified as intrinsic. 4. **Select the Correct Answer**: - Based on the analysis, **starch in water** is the intrinsic colloid among the options provided. ### Final Answer: **Starch in water forms an intrinsic colloid.**
