    The document discusses colloids and their properties. It defines a colloid as a non-crystalline substance dispersed throughout another substance that cannot be separated through filtration alone. Colloids have particle sizes between 1-1000 nanometers and exhibit properties like the Tyndall effect where light is scattered, stability without settling, and Brownian movement of particles. The document also categorizes colloids based on their dispersion medium of liquid, solid or gas.

    What is collide
    • A non-crystalline substance

    • One dispersed through another

    • Cannot be separated out by …


    Three types of colloid

    Dispersion Medium:liquid Dispersion Medium:solid Dispersion Medium:gas


    More detailed classification
    Properties of colloids
    • It is a heterogeneous mixture.
    • The size of colloidal particles is very small. Their particle size ranges
    between 1-1000 nanometres.
    • It shows the Tyndall effect. It means it scatters the beam of light and
    shows its path through itself.
    • They don’t settle down when left undisturbed for some time. It means
    colloidal solutions are quite stable.
    • They cannot be separated by the filtration process.
    • They can be separated by centrifugation.
    • Colloidal particles show Brownian movement.
    Tyndall effect
    • It is a scattering phenomenon of light. When a beam of light passes
    through the colloid, a bright "pathway" that appears in the colloid can
    be observed from the direction of the vertical incident light
    Brownian movement.
    • Brownian motion refers to the random movement displayed by small
    particles that are suspended in fluids. It is commonly referred to as
    Brownian movement
