What are physical states of dispersed phase and dispersion medium of fog?

Open in App

Solution

Colloids:
Colloids are particles having sizes 1-1000 nm dispersed in the dispersion medium
Depending upon the states of the dispersed phase and dispersion medium, different colloids are present like emulsion, sol, aerosol etc..,
Fog is a type of colloid that belongs to the category of aerosol
In the case of fog dispersed phase is liquid and the dispersion medium is gas (aerosol)
Mist and the cloud is other examples belonging to this category.
