Explain what is observed when a beam of light is passed through a colloidal sol.
Explain the observation likely to be made when a beam of light is allowed to pass through a colloidal solution.

Solution
When a beam of light is passed through a colloidal solution, then scattering of light is observed. This is known as the Tyndall effect. This scattering of light illuminates the path of the beam in the colloidal solution.
