Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A colloid is a homogeneous mixture in which the particles are larger than those in a solution but too small to be seen with the naked eye. These particles do not settle out upon standing, making a colloid a good choice for this question. Elements are not mixtures, suspensions contain particles that do settle out, and homogeneous simply means that the mixture is the same throughout. Hydrated is not a relevant option for this question.
