  • A
    Values of colligative properties of colloidal solution are of small order compared to values of true solution.
  • B
    Tyndall effect is observed only when diameter of the dispersed particles is not much smaller than wavelength of incident light.
  • C
    Colour of colloidal solution depends on the wavelength of light scattered by the dispersed particles.
  • Correct answer
    D
    Brownian movement is due to balanced bombardment of molecules of dispersion medium on colloidal particles.
