Understanding Colloids and Their Types by IsaiahRivera is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document defines colloids and differentiates them from solutions and suspensions. Colloids have particle sizes between 1-1000 nm, are heterogeneous mixtures that appear homogeneous, and are visible under an ultramicroscope.
