Freshly made iron(III) hydroxide sol in a knotted visking tubing bag hung in a beaker of distilled water; a sample of the outer water gives a white precipitate with silver nitrate. CBSE class 12; university colloid labs. ## What the template shows - Ions pass through a membrane; colloid particles stay inside - Visking tubing - Partially permeable: water and small ions pass, colloid particles do not - Sol in the bag - Lyophobic Fe(OH)₃ sol: FeCl₃ solution added drop by drop to boiling water; it holds HCl and FeCl₃ as impurities. Lyophilic sols (starch, gum, egg albumin) form just by warming in water - Distilled water - Change it every few hours (or use running water) until no more Cl⁻ comes out - Silver nitrate - Acidify a sample of the outer water with dilute HNO₃, then add a few drops of AgNO₃(aq) - Test the outer water - White AgCl precipitate: Cl⁻ ions have passed out. The water stays colourless: the sol particles stay in - Reaction setup Drawn with 13 shapes – every one editable in MolDraw. ## Sources - [Atkins, de Paula & Keeler, Atkins' Physical Chemistry, 11th ed., OUP 2018](https://openlibrary.org/isbn/9780198769866) Textbook ## How to use this template 1.

You can preview the Purifying a sol by dialysis template here and open and edit it in MolDraw for free. Downloading or exporting it is part of MolDraw Pro, together with the other premium templates. ### Can I edit the Purifying a sol by dialysis template? Yes. It opens as an ordinary MolDraw drawing, so every structure, arrow, label and colour can be changed, and you can add your own content around it. ### Is the chemistry checked? Every structure is checked with RDKit and every curly arrow passes MolDraw’s electron-flow audit. The sources used are listed on this page. ### Can I edit the glassware? Yes. Every piece of glassware is a MolDraw apparatus object: move, resize, recolour the liquid or swap a piece and the joints stay connected. ## More reaction setups templates [**Heating under reflux**Free · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-reflux/)[**Simple distillation**Free · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-distillation/)[**Dean–Stark water removal**Free · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-dean-stark/)[**Soxhlet extraction**Premium · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-soxhlet/)[**Vacuum filtration**Premium · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-vacuum-filtration/)[**Liquid–liquid extraction**Premium · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-extraction/)[**Reaction under nitrogen**Premium · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-inert/)[**Acid–base titration**Premium · Reaction setups](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/setup-titration/) ## Related pages [**Chemistry Lab Report Template**Free printable worksheet](https://www.moldraw.com/educational-materials/lab-report-template/)[**Titration Calculations Worksheet**Free printable worksheet](https://www.moldraw.com/educational-materials/titration-worksheet/)[**TLC and Rf Values Worksheet**Free printable worksheet](https://www.moldraw.com/educational-materials/tlc-rf-worksheet/)[**All Reaction setups templates**102 templates](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/reaction-setups/)[**All chemistry templates**370 templates in 29 categories](https://www.moldraw.com/templates/) MolDraw Pro Download all 370 templates - Export the 291 premium templates as PNG, SVG or PDF - AI chemistry assistant - Structure scanning from images - Cloud save and teaching slides [See Pro plans](https://www.moldraw.com/pricing) Free templates stay free.
