How are sol, solution and suspension different from each other?
SolutionSolution :
- Suspension is a heterogeneous mixture.
- The particles of a suspension can be seen by the naked eye. Their size is larger than 100 nm in diameter.
- The particles of a suspension scatter a beam of light passing through it and make its path visible.
- The solute particles settle down when a suspension is left undisturbed, i.e., a suspension is unstable.
- They can be separated from the mixture by the process of filtration.
