Answer:
The filtrate will contain some small particles of mud. Hence, The correct option is a colloidal solution.
Explanation:
When a small amount of soil is mixed. Some small mud particles suspended in water will be present in the filtrate. Colloids are the type of mixture in which very small insoluble particles of one substance are suspended in another substance. These solutions are known as colloidal solutions or colloidal systems. The size range of the suspended particles in a colloid is One to one thousand nanometers(10⁻⁹ meters).
As a result, when there are some particles of mud present in the filtrate which is not big enough to pass through the filter paper. So, a colloidal solution is formed.
