Solution
The correct option is A
Suspension > Colloidal > True solution
A true solution is clear transparent and homogeneous, a colloid is cloudy, uniform and still homogeneous whereas a suspension is cloudy, heterogeneous and at a point any two substances are visible.
This happens due to the size of their particles which follows the given trend. Suspension > Colloid > True solution.
