The particles in a colloid are large enough to scatter light, a phenomenon called what?

  • Correct Answer: tyndall effect
  • bowman effect
  • astral effect
  • jonah effect

Explanation: The particles in a colloid are large enough to scatter light, a phenomenon called the Tyndall effect. This can make colloidal mixtures appear cloudy or opaque, such as the searchlight beams shown in Figure 11.31. Clouds are colloidal mixtures. They are composed of water droplets that are much larger than molecules, but that are small enough that they do not settle out.
