COLLOID
Teacher Nomar
 What is Colloid?
COLLOIDS are mixture whose
particles are larger than the size
of the particles in a solution and
smaller than the particles in a
suspension.
 What is Colloid?
Solution Colloid Suspension

TWO COMPONENTS OF COLLOID
1. COLLOIDAL OR DISPERSED
PARTICLES – are the particles
that spread out through the
mixture.

2. DISPERSING MEDIUM– is the
substance in which the colloidal
particles are distributed.

CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLOID
1. BROWNIAN MOTION
a colloid is left undisturbed, the particles in
it never fully rest. Instead they exhibit
constant zigzagging movement
CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLOID
2. TYNDALL EFFECT
When a beam of light shines through a
colloid, the suspended particles scatter the
light, making it visible as a distinct column
of illumination.
CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLOID
3. CLOUDY IN APPERANCE
Powdered milk mixed with water is an
example of colloid with cloudy appearance
 What is the difference
between of COLLOID and
SUSPENSION and SOLUTION?
Water plus sugar Water plus Milk Water plus Sand =
= SOLUTION = COLLOID SUSPENSION
