difference between colloid and suspension
Answers
hey mate
Suspensions and colloids are heterogeneous mixtures. A
suspension is identifiable because its particles are large
and settle out of the dispersing medium due to the effects of
gravity. The dispersed particles of a colloid are intermediate in
size between those of a solution and a suspension.
