प्रश्न
How does it become possible to cause artificial rain by spraying silver iodide on the clouds?

उत्तर
Clouds carry a charge as they are colloids. Silver iodide AgI being an electrolyte helps in coagulation process between colloidal particles of water in the cloud. Thus it forms bigger raindrops causing artificial rain. AgI is usually sprayed from an aeroplane or remote-controlled rockets.

Why does leather get hardened after tanning?
Assertion: An ordinary filter paper impregnated with collodion solution stops the flow of colloidal particles.
Reason: Pore size of the filter paper becomes more than the size of colloidal particle.
Assertion: Colloidal solutions do not show brownian motion.
Reason: Brownian motion is responsible for stability of sols.
