Suspension

उत्तर
- Suspensions are heterogeneous mixtures. The solute particles in this mixture remain suspended throughout the bulk of the medium.
- The particles can be seen with the naked eye. Suspension shows the Tyndall effect. The solute particles settle down when the mixture is left undisturbed.
- This means that suspensions are unstable. Suspensions can be separated by the method of filtration.
- For example, mixtures of chalk powder and water, wheat flour and water.
