Milk is an example of a colloidal solution, where fat droplets are dispersed uniformly throughout the liquid medium.
Despite appearing homogeneous, colloidal solutions are heterogeneous because they contain particles of larger sizes that do not dissolve and remain dispersed in the medium.
Colloidal solutions have uniformly dispersed particles throughout the solution, appearing homogeneous despite being heterogeneous.
The stability of a suspension can be influenced by factors such as particle size, viscosity of the medium, and the presence of stabilizing agents or additives. Agitation or settling may also affect suspension stability.
