A colloidal solution is not transparent, has some opalescence.
A colloid is a form of suspension in a liquid or gas, the two phases are distinct.
A colloidal solution is not transparent, has some opalescence.
The Tyndall effect is used to distinguish between a solution and a colloid. In a solution, light passes through without scattering, while in a colloid, the dispersed particles cause light to scatter, making the beam visible.
No, gold is not a colloid. Gold is a pure element and does not form a colloid by dispersing into another substance.
The Tyndall effect is specific for colloids, not for solutions.
The colloid formed a stable suspension in the solution due to the evenly dispersed particles.

Chlorine is a gas at room temperature and pressure, not a solution or colloid. It can be dissolved in water to form a solution known as chlorine water, which is used as a disinfectant.
The noun form for the verb distinguish is distinguisher, one who distinguishes.
The Tyndall effect can be used to distinguish between a colloid and a solution by shining a light through the substance. In a colloid, the light will scatter due to the larger particles present, making the beam visible. In a solution, the light will pass straight through without scattering, making the beam less visible.
No, a diamond is not a colloid. A colloid is a mixture where one substance is evenly dispersed throughout another, like milk or fog. A diamond is a solid crystal form of carbon.
No, a mixture of chalk and water is not a colloid. A colloid is a mixture where one substance is evenly dispersed in another substance, forming a homogeneous mixture. Since chalk does not form a homogeneous mixture with water, it is not considered a colloid.
