Colliods are inbetween solutions and suspensions in terms of the size range of the particles that float
around in them. These particles range in size from 10-8 to 10-6 m in size and are termed colloidal particles
or colloids.
Examples: Latex Paint, Wood Stain, Soy Sauce
3. SUSPENSIONS:_________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________ The particles in suspensions are larger
than 10-6 m in size.
