Answer:

Assertion : When a beam of light is passed through colloidal solution placed in dark place the path of the beam become visible. Reason : Light gets scattered by colloidal particles.

Explanation:

Both A and R are true, and R is correct explanation of the assertion

When a beam of light is passed through a colloidal solution, placed in a dark room the beam of light is scattered by the colloidal particles and the path of the beam becomes visible. The phenomenon is called Tyndall effect.

Assertion and reason both are correct. Reason is correct explanation for assertion.

Explanation:

  • Colloids are mixtures in which microscopically dispersed insoluble particles of one substance are suspended in another substance.
  • The size of the suspended particles in a colloid can range from 1 to 1000 nanometres.
  • Colloids are heterogeneous mixtures in which the particle size is too small to be seen with the naked eye, but is big enough to scatter light.  
  • Particles of colloids easily scatter a beam  of visible light.
  • This scattering of a beam of light is called the Tyndall effect.
  • Tyndall effect is a phenomenon in which beams of light incident on colloids are scattered due to the interactions between the light and the colloidal particles.
