Question

what is suspension? What are the properties of suspension​

Answer 1

Answer:

definition - suspension is a heterogeneous solution in which the particles do not dissolve and remain suspended throughout the bulk of the medium.

Properties:

1. it is a heterogeneous mixture.

2. particle size of a suspension is visible to the naked eye.

3. size of the particles is greater than 100 nm.

4. it is unstable because when the solution is left undisturbed, it settles down.

Answer 2

$\sf \underline\red { Suspension}$

A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which the small particles of a solid are spread throughout a liquid without dissolving in it. Some common examples of suspensions are : Chalk water mixture, Muddy water, Milk of Magnesia, Sand particles suspended in water,and Flour in water.

$\sf \underline\red {Properties \:of \: a \: Suspension}$

1. A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture.
2. The size of solute particles in a suspension is quite large.It is larger than 100nm in diameter.
3. The particles of a suspension can be seen easily.
4. The particles of a suspension do not pass through a filter paper.So, a suspension can be separated by filtration.
5. The suspension are unstable. The particles of a suspension settle down after some time.
6. A suspension scatters a beam of light through it (because its particles are quite large).
