Question

Statement 1 (S1)- Particles of a suspension are visible to the naked eye.
Statement 2 (S2)- A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which the components are non-uniformly distributed.

• A. Both S1 and S2 are false
• B. S1 is false but S2 is true
• C. Both S1 and S2 are true
• D. S1 is true but S2 is false

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both S1 and S2 are true

A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which the components are non-uniformly distributed. The particles of a suspension settle down when left undisturbed for some time.
Particle size of a suspension is larger than 1000 nm, therefore, the particles are visible to our naked eye.
Example- Sand in water, chalk powder in water, etc.
