Write the differences between dyes and pigments.

Answer 1

Differences between dyes and pigments:

Dyes	Pigments
They are soluble in water.	Pigments are colourants that are insoluble in water and most of the solvents.
Lower dyes are very much vulnerable. Light destroy coloured objects by breaking open electronic bonding within the molecule.	Traditionally pigments have been found to be more lightfast than dyes.
Usually, the dye is organic compounds.	Pigments are normally inorganic compounds.
