प्रश्न
What is a colloid ? Give two examples of colloids (or colloidal solutions)
Advertisements
उत्तर
Colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture, wherein the particle size of the substance is intermediate of true solution and suspension, i.e., between 1 nm to 100 nm. Like true solutions, colloidal particles are small enough and cannot be seen through naked eye. They easily pass through the filter paper. However, these particles are big enough to be blocked by parchment paper or animal membrane.
Example: Starch solution, ink

When extremely small particles X derived from the anther of a flower were suspended in a liquid Y and observed through a microscope, it was found that the particles X were moving throughout the liquid Y in a very zig-zag way. It was also observed that warmer the liquid Y, faster the particles X moved on its surface.
