Question
How will you test whether a given solution is a colloidal solution ?
Advertisements
Solution
- The given solution is kept in a beaker.
- A strong beam of light is then passed through the solution in the beaker, which is kept in a dark room.
- If the path of light beam is illuminated and becomes visible, it confirms that the given solution is a colloid.
