justify the statements -"colloids is not a substance a state of substance
Answers
Explanation:
Common salt (a typical crystalloid in an aqueous medium) behaves as a colloid in a benzene medium. Hence, we can say that a colloidal substance does not represent a separate class of substances. When the size of the solute particle lies between 1 nm and 1000 nm, it behaves as a colloid. Hence, we can say that colloid is not a substance but a state of the substance which is dependent on the size of the particle. A colloidal state is intermediate between a true solution and a suspension.

Hello Mate... I hope that the answer Helps You. Please mark me brainliest
Colloid is not a substance but a state of substance is a true statement because some substances which are crystalloids under certain conditions can be colloids under the other, e.g.
NaCl is a crystalloid in aqueous medium, but when mixed with benzene, it behaves as a colloid. It is the size of the particles of that matter, i.e. the state in which the substance exists. If size lies in range of 1-1000 nm, it is in the colloidal state. So, above statement is tru
