Solution

The correct option is C

Dispersed phase: liquid, dispersed medium: solid


Based on the state of dispersed phase, colloids are classffied as gels. Jelly, cheese and butter are examples of gels. The phase in a two-phase system that consists of finely divided particles such as colloidal particles is called dispersed phase.

When dispersion medium is solid, the dispersed phase is liquid.
