Answers
A SOLUTION IN WHICH THE SIZE OF SOLUTE PARTICLES IS INTERMITED BETWEEN THOSE TRUE SOLUTIONS AND SUSPENSION IS CALLED AS COLLOIDS.
⊕ Colloidal Solutions
→ A colloidal solution, sometimes known as a colloidal suspension, is a solution in which a material is evenly suspended in a liquid. In other words, a colloid is a microscopically small substance that is equally dispersed throughout another material. This graphic provides a good introduction to colloidal materials:
⊕ Additional information
→ While colloidal systems can exist in any one of the three main forms of matter, solid, liquid, or gas, a colloidal solution specifically refers to a liquid mixture. The differentiating factor between a true solution and a colloidal solution is essentially the size of the particles. In a true solution, such as salt water, sodium chloride molecules are fully dissolved into water, and the solution can pass through a membrane without becoming separated. In a colloidal solution, on the other hand, the particles are larger and don’t dissolve, but rather become equally dispersed throughout a liquid. As such these particles will not pass through a membrane as the liquid does.
