Question

A mixture of sulphur and carbon disulphide is:

• A. heterogeneous and shows Tyndall effect
• B. homogeneous and shows Tyndall effect
• C. heterogeneous and does not show Tyndall effect
• D. homogeneous and does not show Tyndall effect

Answer 1

The correct option is A heterogeneous and shows Tyndall effect

Sulphur and carbon disulphide do not form a uniform composition and the properties of the mixture are not same throughout.

Therefore, it forms a heterogeneous composition.

Moreover, it shows Tyndall effect, because in water sulphur remains suspended whereas carbon disulphide settles down as a layer at the bottom.
