Colloid particles are smaller than suspensions particles.
Yes, stirring an electrolyte into a colloid can stabilize the colloid by causing the charged particles in the electrolyte to neutralize the charges on the colloid particles. This reduces the repulsion between the colloid particles and prevents them from aggregating or coagulating.
A homogeneous mixture where particles are suspended is known as a colloid. In a colloid, the particles are not fully dissolved but are evenly distributed throughout the mixture, giving it a uniform appearance. Examples of colloids include milk, fog, and gelatin.
One difference is the size of particles: in a solution, particles are uniformly dispersed at a molecular level, whereas in a colloid, particles are larger and dispersed throughout the mixture but do not settle out.
Colloid has larger particles compared to solution, but smaller than suspension. Therefore, of the three options listed (compound, colloid, suspension), a compound mixture typically has the smallest particles.

Brownian motion of particles in a colloid is caused by random collisions with solvent molecules. These collisions result in erratic movement of the particles within the colloid due to thermal energy. Brownian motion helps to keep the particles suspended and well dispersed within the colloid.
Suspension has particles, same as colloids. However, the particles in a suspension do not settle down but if is no so for the colloid.

A colloid. The particles do not settle out, but stay suspended.
Smoke can be considered a colloid due to its particulate nature. In a colloid, small solid particles are dispersed in a gas or liquid medium. Smoke consists of tiny solid particles suspended in air, making it a type of aerosol colloid.
The substance you are describing is a colloid. Colloids contain particles that are intermediate in size between a solution and a suspension. These particles are small enough to stay dispersed and stable throughout the mixture, giving it a uniform appearance.
Smoke is considered a colloid because it consists of small solid particles suspended in a gas (air). These solid particles are dispersed throughout the gas, creating a mixture that exhibits the properties of a colloid, such as being able to scatter light.
