|
|
False
|
|
|
Either A or B
|
|
|
None of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The size of colloidal particles is large enough to scatter light while particles of a true solution are too small to scatter light.
Detailed explanation-2: -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.
Detailed explanation-3: -In summary: A solution is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. The solution is homogeneous and does not settle out. A solution cannot be filtered but can be separated using the process of distillation.
