A typical solution is a homogeneous mixture with only one phase; a suspension is a nonhomogeneous mixture.
For a colloid the answer is more complicate: the appearance is homogeneous, single phase but at a microscopic scale the system is not homogeneous.
Suspension
No it is a compound.
A solution is a homogenous mixture where the solute particles are evenly distributed in the solvent. A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture where the solute particles settle out over time. A colloid is a mixture where the solute particles are dispersed throughout the solvent but are not fully dissolved.
Colloid is not a true solution they both differ from each other. Colloid is a kind of solution that scatters a beam of light passing through it and renders it path visible while a True solution is a kind of solution that scatters a beam of light passing through it and renders it path visible .
A chocolate drink is typically a colloid mixture. Cocoa powder, sugar, and other ingredients are dispersed in a liquid medium like milk or water, creating a stable and uniform mixture. This leads to a smooth and creamy texture in the beverage.
Muddy water is a suspension because the particles in a suspension are small, not settled, and separate if left undisturbed like in the most common kind of suspension made of silt and water.
No it is not a colloid. Colloid is a kind of solution in which the size of solute particles is intermediate between those in true solutions and those in suspension.
