what are colloids ? tell the properties of colloids?
Answers
A colloid is a phase-separated mixture in chemistry where one material is suspended within another material with microscopically scattered insoluble or soluble particles. There is a diameter between roughly 1 and 1000 nanometres for the dispersed-phase particles.

Answer: Colloid ⤵️
A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture whose particles are not as small as solution but they are so small that cannot be seen by naked eye. When a beam of light is passed through a colloid then the path of the light becomes visible. For example milk, smoke etc.
Properties of a colloid
• A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture.
• The size of particles of a colloid is too small to be individually seen by naked eyes.
• Colloids are big enough to scatter a beam of light passing through it and make its path visible.
• They do not settle down when left undisturbed, that is, a colloid is quite stable.
• They cannot be separated from the mixture by the process of filtration. But, a special technique of separation known as centrifugation can be used to separate the colloidal particles.
