Is the path of light visible in a suspension? give reason.
Answers
Explanation:
1.It is due to tyndall effect that the path of a light ray passing through a suspension is visible. The particles in suspension scatter the beam of light making it clearly visible.
2A solution is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. A suspension is cloudy and heterogeneous. The particles are larger than 10,000 Angstroms which allows them to be filtered. A colloid is intermediate between a solution and a suspension
