A colloid -- this is where you get what are known as "nanoclusters" of atoms floating around insoluble in the solution. These nanoclusters are not visible to the naked eye, so you cannot "see" the particles, as you can in a suspension (which has bigger particle size) -- but the nanoparticles still reflect light, so the solution appears to be some degree of opaque, rather than clear and translucent.

there are 3 types of mixture:
