The particles in both a suspension and a colloid can ______.
The particles in both a suspension and a colloid can ______.
The correct option is B scatter light
The particles in a suspension and a colloid can scatter a beam of light passing through it. This is also known as the Tyndall effect. The particles in colloids and suspensions are large enough to cause the light beam to scatter, making it visible as it passes through the colloid or suspension.
The particles of a suspension settle down after some time when left undisturbed and can be separated using filter paper. While the particles of colloids are stable enough not to settle down. So, they cannot be separated using filter paper.
Solute suspended in a solvent is called suspension. So, In suspension does not dissolve in a solvent.
Colloids solutions look homogeneous but they are heterogeneous mixtures. So, Colloids also do not dissolve in a solvent.
