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 .
One difference is the size of particles: in a solution, particles are uniformly dispersed at a molecular level, whereas in a colloid, particles are larger and dispersed throughout the mixture but do not settle out.
Suspension is typically made up of larger particles (greater than 1000 nm) that are dispersed in a liquid. In contrast, a colloid solution consists of particles that are intermediate in size between a suspension and a true solution (1-1000 nm). Therefore, the particles in a suspension are generally larger than those in a colloid solution.
The Tyndall effect can be used to distinguish between a colloid and a solution by observing the scattering of light. In a colloid, the particles are large enough to scatter light, making a beam of light visible when it passes through, whereas in a true solution, the particles are too small to scatter light, resulting in no visible beam. Therefore, if a light beam is visible in the mixture, it indicates the presence of a colloid, while the absence of light scattering suggests a true solution.
Salt water is a solution, not a colloid suspension. In a solution, the solute particles are dissolved on a molecular level and do not settle out. Colloid suspensions, on the other hand, have larger solute particles that do not dissolve and may eventually settle out.
One true way to identify a colloid solution is by observing the Tyndall effect, which occurs when light is scattered by the particles in the colloid. If you shine a beam of light through the solution and see a visible path of light, it indicates the presence of dispersed particles typical of a colloidal system. Additionally, colloids typically do not settle upon standing, distinguishing them from suspensions.

No , this is false.
No. A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture.
Sodium chloride (NaCl) in water is a true solution.

Yes, but not always. For instance if we make ink highly dilute then we might get true solution but the same is not applicable with starch solution or paints etc

This depends: an ink may be a true sollution or a colloidal solution, or a suspension.
One test to determine if a mixture is a true solution or a colloid is the Tyndall effect. If light passing through the mixture scatters, making the beam visible, it suggests the presence of larger particles characteristic of a colloid. In contrast, a true solution will not scatter light and the beam will be invisible.

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.
