Brownian Movement

Brownian movement is the random motion of particles suspended in a fluid (a

liquid or a gas) resulting from their collision with the fast-moving atoms or
molecules in the gas or liquid.
The Tyndall effect is the scattering of light as a light beam passes through a colloid. The
individual suspension particles scatter and reflect light, making the beam visible. ... The size of
the particles is what distinguishes a colloid from a true solution.

Tyndall Effect

An easy way of determining whether a mixture is colloidal or not is through use of

the Tyndall Effect. When light is shined through a true solution, the light passes
cleanly through the solution, however when light is passed through a colloidal
solution, the substance in the dispersed phases scatters the light in all directions,
making it readily seen. An example of this is shining a flashlight into fog. The beam
of light can be easily seen because the fog is a colloid.

What are protective colloids give an example?

The protective colloid is a type of lyophilic (water loving) colloid which is used to protect
the lyophobic colloids from precipitating in an electrolytic solution. The common
example of protective colloids are : gelatin, casein, hemoglobin, egg albumin etc
