Answer: A colloid can be detected by using the Tyndall effect.

Explanation: Tyndall effect is the effect when scattering of light is seen by the particles in a colloidal solution.

As the particles in colloid are of intermediate size than true solution and suspension, the Tyndall effect is very well studied in colloids.

Examples of colloids are clouds, fog etc.

The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above would be the second option, TYNDALL. A colloid can be detected by using the Tyndall effect. The Tyndall effect is defined as the effect of light scattering in colloidal dispersion and in a true solution, there will be no light effect. Hope this answer helps.
