What is the range of particles in colloid Suspension and solution |
| Answer» Colloidal solutions:\xa0Colloidal solutions are heterogeneous systems and have the size of dispersed particles lying between 1 nm-1000 nm (i.e. 10-9-10-6\xa0m).Suspensions:\xa0Suspensions are also heterogeneous system and have still larger particles. The size of particles present in a suspension is more than 1000 nm (i.e., >10-6m). These particles are either visible to naked eye or can be seen under a microscope.True solutions:\xa0True solutions are homogeneous system and have the size of dispersed particles less than 1 nm, i.e. 10-9. The particles of solute present in a true solution are either single molecules or ions and are homogeneously distributed throughout the solutions. | |
