Collidal solution is a heterogeneous solution which contains particle of intermediate size, i.e., (diameter between 1 and 1000 nm) colloidal is not a substance but it is a state of a substance which depends upon the molecular size. Colloidal solutions are intermediate between ture solution and suspensions.
The colloidal particle can pass through

A

Filter paper as well can pass through Animal Membrane

B

Animal membrane but not through filter paper.

C

Filter paper but not through animal membrane.

D

Neither filter paper nor animal membrane.

The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Colloidal Solutions:** - A colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture where the particle size ranges from 1 to 1000 nanometers (nm). This size range is crucial in determining the behavior of colloidal particles. 2. **Comparison with Other Solutions:** - Colloidal solutions are intermediate between true solutions and suspensions. - True solutions have particles that are smaller than 1 nm and cannot be seen with the naked eye, and they pass through all types of filters. - Suspensions contain larger particles (greater than 1000 nm) that can settle down and can be separated by filtration. 3. **Behavior of Colloidal Particles:** - Since colloidal particles are larger than the particles in true solutions, they cannot pass through semipermeable membranes (like animal membranes). - However, they are smaller than the particles in suspensions, which allows them to pass through filter paper. 4. **Conclusion:** - Based on the above understanding, colloidal particles can pass through filter paper but cannot pass through animal membranes. 5. **Final Answer:** - Therefore, the correct answer is that colloidal particles can pass through filter paper but not through animal membranes.
