Ans: A colloid is a combination that contains scattered insoluble particles and is suspended throughout another substance. A colloidal solution refers to the entire combination. A colloidal solution has an even distribution of the colloid.
- A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture in which minute particles of one component are dispersed in another substance’s dispersion medium.
- Colloids include fog, smog, and sprays, milk and mayonnaise, and starch. The diameters of starch molecules are colloidal. As a result, starch is the component in water that forms a colloidal solution.
- The Tyndall effect occurs when scattered particles in a colloid solution scatter light.
Looking at the possibilities, it’s evident that starch in water possesses all of the colloidal solution features. While NaCl and Barium Nitrate create real solutions in water, Glucose does not exhibit the Tyndall effect in water.
