Is it possible to know the size and shape of colloidal particles by using ultramicroscope? 

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

With the ultramicroscope we can see only the light scattered by the colloidal particles, but not actual colloidal particle. Thus, ultramicroscope does not provide any information about the size and shape of colloidal particles.
