True Solution: A true solution is a homogeneous liquid containing two or more substances.
Colloidal Solution: A colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture of two or more substances.
Transparency
True Solution: True solutions are transparent.
Colloidal Solution: Colloidal solutions are translucent.
Particle Size
True Solution: The size of the particles is 1 nm in true solutions.
Colloidal Solution: The size of the particles ranges from 1 nm to 100 nm.
Visibility
True Solution: The particles of true solution are invisible to naked eye and even under powerful microscopes.
Colloidal Solution: The particles of colloidal solution are invisible to naked eye but are visible under powerful microscopes.
Filtration
True Solution: The particles of true solutions cannot be seperated through filtering.
Colloidal Solution: The particles of colloidal solutions can be seperated from filtering through parchment papers.
Settling
True Solution: The particles do not settle at the bottom of the container in true solutions.
Colloidal Solution: The particles of colloidal solutions can settle at the bottom of the container through centrifugation.
Brownian Effect
True Solution: The Brownian effect cannot be observed in true solutions.
Colloidal Solution: The Brownian effect can be observed in colloidal solutions
