The correct decreasing order of size of the particles of solution, suspension and colloid is: Suspension > Colloid > True solution.

A true solution is a homogeneous mixture. The size of the particle of a true solution is very small i.e., less than 1nm

Suspension and colloids are heterogeneous mixtures. The particle size of the colloid varies between 1 nm to 100 nm and they are relatively larger than particles of a true solution. 

In the case of suspension, the particle size is large i.e., greater than 100 nm and they scatter a beam of light passing through it.
