There are two ways that colloids are formed. One is through reduction of larger particles to colloidal size. Another is condensation of smaller particles.
A colloid is a type of mechanical mixturewhere one substance is dispersed evenly throughout another. The particles of the dispersed substance are only suspended in the mixture, unlike a solution, where they are completely dissolved within. This occurs because the particles in a colloid are larger than in a solution - small enough to be dispersed evenly and maintain a homogenous appearance, but large enough to scatter light and not dissolve. Because of this dispersal, some colloids have the appearance of solutions. A colloidal system consists of two separate phases: a dispersed phase (or internal phase) and a continuous phase (or dispersion medium).
A colloid is a substance microscopically dispersed evenly throughout another substance.[1]
A colloidal system consists of two separate phases: a dispersed phase (or internal phase) and a continuous phase (or dispersion medium). A colloidal system may be solid, liquid, or gaseous.
Many familiar substances are colloids, as shown in the chart below. In addition to these naturally occurring colloids, modern chemical process industries utilize high shear mixing technology to create novel colloids.
The dispersed-phase particles have a diameter of between approximately 5 and 200 nanometers.[2] Such particles are normally invisible in an optical microscope, though their presence can be confirmed with the use of an ultramicroscope or an electron microscope. Homogeneous mixtures with a dispersed phase in this size range may be called colloidal aerosols, colloidal emulsions, colloidal foams, colloidal dispersions, orhydrosols. The dispersed-phase particles or droplets are affected largely by the surface chemistry present in the colloid.
Some colloids are translucent because of the Tyndall effect, which is the scattering of light by particles in the colloid. Other colloids may be opaque or have a slight color.
Colloidal solutions (also called colloidal suspensions) are the subject of interface and colloid science. This field of study was introduced in 1861 by Scottish scientist Thomas Graham.

Things that i cant explain name but are very scientific.
Foams
Colloids are stuck between heterogeneous and homogeneous mixture. So you can't say that it is a heterogeneous or homogeneous. It is both.
A colloid refers to a homogeneous mixture containing insoluble particles that do not settle out. Some examples of negatively charged colloids are silica, clay minerals and soil colloids.
What is a colloid
yes
foil?
they both are made out of water.
A colloid is a substance microscopically dispersed evenly throughout another substance. Some examples of common "man-made" colloids are whipped cream, gelatin like Jello, commercially produced ketchup, and gravies. They are all man made colloids that a person can eat.
After my opinion they are not colloids.

Colloids are very small particles of a substance suspended in a mixture making them homogeneous.
Milk, butter, gelatin, and jelly are some examples of colloids. Aerosols can be categorised under colloids too.
the biological is biology scientist of the condensation of colloids....
These colloids are called emulsions.
The 3 types of colloidal system are: 1. Lyophilic colloids 2. Lyophobic colloids 3. Association colloids
some colloids cause pollution in the environment...some colloids release cfc's that contributes to the ozone layer depletion...
