(A) The particle size in a true solution is less than $1 \, nm$ $(1 \, m\mu)$.In a colloidal solution,the particle size ranges from $1 \, nm$ to $1000 \, nm$ ($1 \, m\mu$ to $1000 \, m\mu$).In a suspension,the particle size is greater than $1000 \, nm$ ($1000 \, m\mu$ or $1 \, \mu m$).Since $300 \, m\mu$ falls within the range of a colloidal solution $(1 \, m\mu - 1000 \, m\mu)$,but the question asks for particles greater than $300 \, m\mu$,both colloidal particles (up to $1000 \, m\mu$) and suspension particles (greater than $1000 \, m\mu$) satisfy this condition.However,in standard chemistry classification,suspensions are defined as having particles larger than $1000 \, nm$,while colloids are between $1 \, nm$ and $1000 \, nm$.Given the options,a suspension is the category where particles are characteristically large and definitely exceed $300 \, m\mu$.

In which of the following will the particle size be greater than $300 \, m\mu$?
