Question
why brownian motion do not occur in solid
Open in App
Solution
Dear student,
Brownian motion is due to the bombardment of colloidal particles by the molecules of the dispersion medium which are in constant motion.
In case of fluids, this constant motion of molecules can be observed but in case of solids, there is no such constant motion of the molecules of the dispersed medium.
That's why brownian motion cannot be observed in solids.
