Cevap

Smoke is classified as an aerosol because it consists of solid particles dispersed in a gas.
Smoke consists of microscopic solid carbon particles suspended in air (a gas). Any colloidal dispersion where a solid or liquid is dispersed in a gas is categorized as an aerosol.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium of smoke.
Dispersed phase = solid (carbon/ash particles), Dispersion medium = gas (air).
Classification of colloids depends on the physical states of the dispersed phase and dispersion medium.
2
Match the phase combination (solid in gas) to the standard colloidal nomenclature.
Solid dispersed in a gas is termed a solid aerosol.
Colloids with a gaseous dispersion medium are broadly categorized as aerosols.
