they are brightened by the light
Bright particles of smoke seen moving against a dark background.
Smoke is made up of small particles which have tiny mass. Any massive can occupy space. Light being electromagnetic cannot occupy space but traverses through space.
No.
No, smoke is not considered a transparent medium because it does not transmit rays of light through it. An example of a transparent medium would be glass.
Light passing through a transparent medium like glass/water does. Smoke is made of small particles of unburnt carbon, and light passing through is does not get split into a rainbow.

yes,you should be able to...i think why dont you test it?

In order to be seen, light must reach the eye. Since laser light is coherent, it travels only along its line of propogation, so there is no light to be viewed from the side of the beam. However, when a laser beam passes through fog, it is reflected off of tiny particulate droplets of water in the fog (or smoke particles in smoke), so is diffused in all directions and can be observed. In order to be seen passing through water, there must be suspended particles in the water from which the light can be reflected. The beam should not be visible as it passes through perfectly pure water.
smoke is a suspenison of what particles ?
smoke particles are bigger than gas particles.
No.
They can help identify colloids, a type of mixture in which one substance is dispersed evenly throughout another in the form of small particles, like milk, smoke, fog, etc. When you shine a bright light through a colloid, the light will scatter (like when you shine a flashlight through smoke), a phenomenon known as the Tyndall effect.
It is poisen coming into your body and is destroying everything that it travels through.
when alpha particles are accelerated between the electrified parallel plates, a few electrons of charged particles are energised and then eject a flash of light on return to original energy level. the probability of this happening is random due to the narrow conditions necessary for such phenomenon. ionising smoke detectors have a small [1 micro curie alpha source] that ejects alpha particles into an electric field. if the flow of alpha particles is prevented [by smoke particles], an alarm is sounded.
