EXPLANATION:
- Suspension is a heterogenous mixture, which has particles that do not completely dissolve and settle down at the bottom. Some insoluble solids such as flour seem to make the water apper cloudly. When the insoluble solid is spread throughout the liquid, making it cloudly, it is called a suspension.
Properties of a Suspension:
- The size of solute particles in a suspension is quite large. (It is larger than 100 mm in diameter.)
- The particles of a suspension can be seen easily.
- The particles of a suspension do not pass through a filter paper. So a suspension can be seperated by filtration.
- The suspension is unstable. The particles of a suspension settle down after some time.
- A suspension scatters a beam of light passing through it because of its large particle size.

- Some medicine like for children, like antibiotics, are sold as suspensions. This is because children cannot yet swallow capsules or tablets. They are sold as powder in bottles (Pharmaceutical Suspensions). Water has to be added into it and the resulting mixture has to be shaken well.
