Answer the following question.
Why are medicines more effective in the colloidal state?

उत्तर
Some medicines are more effective in colloidal form because medicine in colloidal form is easily absorbed by the body tissues.
For example, Antibiotics like streptomycin in the form of the colloidal sol is injected into the body for the more effective result.
