5 Marks Questions
22. (I) A group of students took an old shoe box and covered it with a black paper from all sides. They
fixed a source of light (a torch) at one end of the box by making a hole in it and made another hole on
the other side to view the light. They placed a milk sample contained in a beaker/tumbler in the box
as shown in the figure. They were amazed to see that milk taken in the tumbler was illuminated. They
tried the same activity by taking a salt solution but found that light simply passed through it.
(a) Explain why the milk sample was illuminated. Name the phenomenon involved.
(b) Same results were not observed with a salt solution. Explain.
(c) Can you suggest two more solutions which would show the same effect as shown by the milk
solution?
i. Can you classify each of Sarita's mixtures as a solution, a colloid and a suspension? Explain your
reasoning.
ii. Sarita left all the mixtures undisturbed for several hours. What would be her expected observation?
iii. What distinguishes a colloid from a solution in terms of particle size and appearance?
