Question

Tyndall effect is shown by:

• A. \( \text{Particles in colloidal solution} \)
• B. \( \text{Particles in very fine suspension} \)
• C. \( \text{Aerosols} \)
• D. \( \text{All of the above} \)

Hint:

Tyndall effect is used in analytical chemistry to examine colloidal stability and composition.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Tyndall effect refers to the scattering of light by small particles suspended in a medium. It is observed in colloidal solutions, fine suspensions, and aerosols, where light is dispersed due to particle interaction. This phenomenon helps in distinguishing true solutions from colloidal mixtures.
