Question

What is the size of colloidal particles?

Answer 1

Colloidal particles

• Colloidal particles are larger than simple molecules but small enough to remain suspended.
• Because of their small size, colloidal particles have a large surface area per unit mass.

Size of colloidal particles

• Their range of diameters of colloidal particles is between 1 and 1000 nm, i.e. from 10^-9 to 10^-6 m.
