Sol(Colloidal solution)SolutionSuspension
1.They are heterogeneous in nature1.They are homogeneous in nature1.They are heterogeneous in nature
2. They scatter a beam of light and hence show Tyndall effect.2. They do not scatter a beam of light and hence do not show Tyndall effect.2. They do not scatter a beam of light and hence do not show Tyndall effect.
3. They are quite stable3. They are very stable3. They are unstable
