Peptization denotes
- A digestion of food
- B hydrolysis of proteins
- C breaking and dispersion into colloidal state
- D precipitation of solid from colloidal dispersion
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) breaking and dispersion into colloidal state
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The dispersal of a precipitated material into colloidal solution by the action of an electrolyte in solution is called peptisation and the electrolyte is called a peptising agent.
