Solution

The correct option is C Sols of Arsenic
Lyophobic colloids are liquid hating colloids (Lyo means solvent and phobic means hating). When these colloids are mixed with the suitable liquid, very weak force of attraction exists between colloidal particles and liquid and system does not pass into colloidal state readily. Sols of inorganic substances are lyophobic.EX: Sols of Arsenic.
