Suspension
Suspension
A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture in which small particles of a solid remain suspended throughout the mass of the liquid or gas. For example, mud, sand and chalk particles remain suspended in water. Solid particles may remain suspended even in a gas. These mixtures are called suspensions.
Examples: Muddy water, sand - water mixture, chalk - water mixture, paints, etc., are suspensions.
