Question

IS COLLOIDAL SOLUTION HETEROGENIUS OR HOMOGENIUS?? BECAUSE TYNDALL
EFFECT CAN BE OBSERVED IN COLOIDAL SOLUTION AND THE PARTICLES
CANNOT BE VISIBLE AND ALSO IT IS TRANSLUCENT AND PARTICLES ARE
UNIFORMLY DISTRIBUTION…

Geetha · Accepted Answer

A colloid is a heterogeneous
mixture
Colloidal particle size is too
small
They scatter beam of light
Do not settle when left
undisturbed
Cannot be separated by the process of
filtration

â€‹â€‹The
particles of a colloid are uniformly spread throughout the solution
Due to the relatively smaller size of the particles the mixture
appears to be homogeneous But a colloidal solution is a
heterogeneous mixture Colloidal particles scatter a beam of light
and that effect is called Tyndall effect
