        Sol and gel are examples of colloids

        Explanation:

        Let us first understand what is a colloid. A colloid is a mixture wherein a substance with microscopically dispersed insoluble particles is suspended throughout another substance.

        Now coming to sol and gel,

        Sol is a colloid system wherein solid particles are distributed in a liquid substance. For example Cell fluids.

        Gel is a colloidal system wherein liquid particles are distributed in a solid media forming a colloidal solution. For example Jellies.
