The cause of Brownian movement which is ...

The cause of Brownian movement which is not shown by true solutions or suspensions is due to

A

unbalanced bombardment of particles by molecules of the dispersion medium

B

attractive forces between dispered phase and dispersion medium

C

larger size of the particles due to which they keep colliding and settling down

D

conversion currents formed in the sol.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
