    The correct answer is b) heterogeneous and shows Tyndall effect

    Let us see why so?

    We know that S(Sulphur) and CS2​(Carbon Disulphide) do not form a uniform composition so it forms a heterogeneous solution.

    And in water CS2​ settles down as the bottom layer and sulfur remains suspended in the solution forming a colloidal solution thus being able to show tyndall effect.

    Therefore, a mixture of sulphur and carbon disulphide is heterogeneous in nature and shows the Tyndall effect.
