Question

Explain what is observed When a beam of light is passed through a colloidal sol.

Solution 1

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.
