Question

What is suspension ? ​

Answer 1

A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which solute-like particles settle out of a solvent-like phase sometime after their introduction. ... We apply the word 'suspension' when particles are big enough to eventually settle. If the particles are too small to ever settle, they are said to form a colloid.
