Solution

The correct option is A True

A colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture in which particles having a size bigger than a true solution but smaller than that of a suspension are dispersed in a continuous dispersion medium.

  • The particle size ranges from 10-7 to 10-4.
  • The dispersion medium is the continuous medium in a colloid, and the particles are the dispersed phase.
  • Curd is an example of a liquid dispersion medium with a solid dispersed phase. As a result, the curd is called "gel."
  • Thus, Curd is an example of a gel is a true statement.
