Answer:

Colloidal can not be separated through filtration.

Suspension can be separated through filtration.

Explanation:

Colloidal:

Colloidal consist of the particles having size between 1 - 1000 nm i.e, 0.001- 1μm. While the pore size of filter paper is 2μm. That's why we can not separate the colloidal through the filtration. However it can be separated through the ultra filtration. In ultra filtration the pore size is reduced by soaking the filter paper in gelatin and then in formaldehyde. This is only in case of when solid colloidal is present, if colloid is liquid , there is no solid particles present and ultra filtration can not be used in this case.

Suspension:

The particle size in suspension is greater than 1000 nm. The particles in suspension can be separated through the filtration. These particles are large enough and can be seen through naked eye.

Answer:

The options are unclear, however, the correct option is:

Aqueous solutions of ionic compounds cause to dissociate, hence, ions are free to conduct electricity

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are compounds formed from ions (charged atoms). For example, NaCl is an ionic compound from the following ions; Na+ (cation) and Cl- (anion). One characteristics of ionic compounds is their ability to dissociate into the ions that form them when in an aqueous solution i.e. NaCl will dissociate into Na+ and Cl- when in an aqueous solution.

These disssociated ions are free to conduct electricity, hence, making ionic compounds good conductors of electricity.
