Answer 1

Pigments are the set of compounds that have an intense color and are used in the coloring of other materials.

Pigments are of two types namely organic and inorganic pigments. The organic pigments are made from some of the natural sources, whereas the synthetic organic pigments are derived from the coal tars and some of the other form of petrochemicals.
