Answer:

solution is clear solution while colloidal is between the solution and suspension. And in suspension particles are suspended.

Step-by-step explanation:

In solution light can be passed without any scattering of light from solute particles while suspension is cloudy and having larger particle size than colloids, if suspension stands for a while particles will settle down easily.

In colloids light will scattered and dispersed by reflecting with large particles.
