    Assertion (A): The scattering of light while passing through a true solution is called Tyndall effect.
    Reason (R): Intensity of scattered light is inversely proportional to the fourth power of wavelength.

    A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

    B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A

    C) A is true but R is false

    D) A is false and R is True

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Option [d] is correct.
    Explanation: When light is passed through a true solution does not occur. Scattering occurs when light is passed through a colloidal solution. So, the assertion is false.
    In Rayleigh scattering intensity of scattered light is inversely proportional to the fourth power of wavelength, blue light is scattered mush more strongly than red light. Hence the reason is true.
