Non-colloidal solution is an example of the _______________ fluid?
Correct answer: B. Newtonian
- A. Non-Newtonian
- B. Newtonian
- C. Dilatent
- D. Pseudo-plastic
Explanation
A non-colloidal solution generally behaves as a Newtonian fluid, for which shear stress is directly proportional to the velocity gradient. Dilatant and pseudo-plastic behaviours are non-Newtonian effects found in suspensions or concentrated mixtures.
