Detection of colloids using the Tyndall effect

LC1.9.1.1

To carry out all experiments from this subject area, we offer you a complete set: CLICK HERE

Description

A first introduction to nanochemistry can be done by analysing colloids. With the Tyndall effect, the students can distinguish a colloidal solution from a real solution. Colloids have the property of scattering light by their particles. The light beam becomes visible in a colloidal solution, but not in a real one. Thus, the students hereby learn a simple method to detect nanoparticles.
