    The size of colloidal particle is

    A)  \[{{10}^{-12}}\] to \[{{10}^{-19}}\]m

    B)   \[{{10}^{-3}}\]to \[{{10}^{-9}}\]m

    C)   \[{{10}^{-9}}\]to \[{{10}^{-12}}\] m

    D)      \[{{10}^{-6}}\] to \[{{10}^{-9}}\] m.

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    A system is said to be in colloidal state if particles of one or more components have the size range \[{{10}^{-6}}\] to \[{{10}^{-9}}\]. In other words, the colloidal solution is a heterogeneous dispersion of solute particles of size ranging between \[{{10}^{-6}}\] to\[{{10}^{-9}}\]  m into a solvent. Particles are visible only with an ultramicroscope.
