which of the following statement is not true about the oil - in - water type emulsion ?

Define emulsions.

What are emulsions ? Give an example of oil in water and water in oil emulsion.

Emulsions are normally prepared by shaking the two components together vigorously although some kind of emulsifiying agent usually has to added to stabilize the product. This emulsifying agent amy be a soap or other sufactant (surface active) sepcies or a lyophilic sol that forms a protective film around the dispersed phase. Emulsion broadly classified into two types: (i) Oil in water emulsions (O/W): Oil acts as dispersed phase and water acts as dispersion medium. (ii). Water in oil emulsion (W/O): Water acts as dispersed phase and oil acts as dispersion medium Due test, dilution test may be emplyoyed for identification of emulsions. Q. Read two statment s: (1) milk is an example of oil in water (O/w) type emulsion (2) cold cream is an example of water in oil (W/O) type emulsion
