Question

By giving two characteristics define the following:
(c) Suspension

✓

Answer

Characteristics of Suspension solution:
• It is a type of heterogeneous mixture
• In a suspension particles of the solute do not dissolve in the solvent, they remain suspended throughout the solvent
• The size of particles of suspension is greater than 1 nanometer (10-9 m), so it can be visible from naked eyes.
• It shows the Tyndall effect because of their large size of particles.
