Solution

The correct option is B

A heterogeneous mixture in which very fine particles of solid are dispersed in any medium.


A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which solute-like particles settle down some-time after their introduction. It is also defined as a heterogeneous mixture in which very fine particles of solid are dispersed in any medium. For example, sand in water. The particles of sand eventually settle down if left undisturbed.
