Asked by markjosephsacay471

Answer (1)

Suspension is a heterogenous mixture where small solid particles are spread out in a liquid or gas, but they don’t dissolve. The particles are large enough to be seen and they will settle at the bottom if the mixture is left still for a while. Suspensions need to be shaken or stirred before use. You can usually separate them by filtering if needed. This can take out the large particles in the mixture by using a filter.Examples of suspensionMuddy water – dirt particles stay floating for a while but settle at the bottom eventually.Orange juice with pulp – the pulp doesn’t dissolve and can sink over time.Flour in water – flour mixes at first but settles if left alone.Paint – needs shaking because the solid particles settle when stored.
