Question

Explain the following giving examples. suspension

Answer 1

Suspension:-

1. Suspension is a mixture in which small particles of a solid without dissolving in it are spread throughout a liquid.
2. These particles of a suspension can be seen through the naked eyes.
3. In these mixtures, all the components present here are completely mixed, and can also be seen under a microscope.
4. With solid particles present that are sufficiently large for sedimentation, a suspension is a heterogeneous mixture.
5. Examples include Milk of magnesia $\mathrm{Mg}{\left(\mathrm{OH}\right)}_2$, Chalk-water mixture, sand-water mixture.

Therefore, a suspension is a mixture where the small solid particles spread throughout the liquid without getting dissolved. Examples are, sand-water mixture, Milk of magnesia$\mathrm{Mg}{\left(\mathrm{OH}\right)}_2$.
