Option 4 : It will scatter light.
The correct answer is It will scatter light.
Concept:
Mixtures:
- A mixture is a substance that consists of two or more elements or compounds not chemically combined together
Types of Mixtures:
- Homogeneous Mixture:
- Those mixtures, in which the substances are completely mixed together and are indistinguishable from one another, are called homogeneous mixtures.
- A true solution is a homogeneous mixture.
- For example Soda water, Soft drinks, lemonade, salt or sugar solution, etc.
- Heterogeneous Mixture:
- Those mixtures in which the substances remain separate and one substance is spread throughout the other substance as small particles, droplets, or bubbles are called heterogeneous mixtures.
- All the suspensions and colloids are heterogeneous mixtures.
- For Example: - Sugar and sand mixture, muddy river water, soap solution.
Explanation:
Colloids:
- These mixtures appear to be homogeneous but they are actually heterogeneous.
- Their particles are very small (1-to 1000 nanometers in size). They cannot be seen with naked eyes.
- They show the Tyndall effect i.e., they scatter the beam of light passing through them.
- They don’t settle down when left undisturbed for some time. They are quite stable.
- They cannot be separated by the filtration process but they can be separated by centrifugation.
