In true solutions the solute dissolves completely in the solvent at the molecular level, meaning that the solute particles are present at their molecular size - well below the size of a particle required to exhibit light scattering dispersion (the Tyndall effect).

The Tyndall effect is an effect of light through a substance that has particles suspended. Solutions on their own don't have these particles, but colloidal suspensions are particles suspended within a solution and thus can display the Tyndall effect.

suspensin particles are very big that light is blocked and difficult to pass.solution paticles are very small they scatter the rays of light while colloid

The Tyndall effect is the result of particles or bubbles scattering light. When sodium chloride dissolves it breaks apart into individual ions, which are too small to scatter light.

Colloids consist of small particles suspended in a fluid. Those particles scatter light that passes through the fluid, allowing a beam of light to be seen from the side.

Why do colloids produce the Tyndall effect?

The partiales of a Suspension are Big. Therefore they Show tyndall effect


Does colloids exhibits Tyndall effect?

The tyndall effect is a result of scattering from colloids that are around the wavelength of light, this is why milk does not appear blue.


Does a sugar solution show the Tyndall effect?

NO as it is not a collidal solution. the particles of sugar solution are too small too scatter light so....NO!


Is tyndall effect observed in true solution?

No, the Tyndall effect is observed only in colloids.


What mixture shows the Tyndall effect?

Suspensions and colloids exhibit the Tyndall Effect. When a beam of light is shone on either of these mixtures, it will be scattered by the continuous movement of the particles and not shine through to the other side.


How can the Tyndall effect to be used to distinguish between a colloid and a solution?

The Tyndall effect is specific for colloids, not for solutions.
