Colloids are quite stable. Name the process by which you can separate the components of a colloidal solution.
(CENTRIFUGATION) The components of a colloidal solution cannot be separated by ordinary filtration. However,they can be separated by a process known as $Centrifugation$. In this process,the colloidal solution is spun at a very high speed,causing the dispersed phase particles to settle down at the bottom due to their density,allowing the separation of the components.
