Question

We have compared the tyndall effect to the beam of light in a canopy of forest. Milk is a colloid. Then why doesn't it scatters the light ?

Solution

I think you're mistaken, milk is a colloidal solution and it does scatter light.

MILK colloids have suspension of small particles, from 1 – 1000 nanometres in size which can scatter light falling on them, a phenomenon called asTyndall effect.

If you have any other answer that contradict this, please mention it so that i can also see.
