Write the Characteristic of Suspension. |
|
Answer» • A suspension is of heterogeneous nature- There are two phase. The solid particles represent one phase while the liquid in which these are suspended or distributed forms the other phase • The particle size in a suspension is more than 100 mn (or 10-7 m). • The particles in a suspension can be seen with naked eyes and also under a microscope. • The solid particles present in the suspension can be easily separated by ordinary filter papers. No special filter papers are needed for the purpose. • The particles in a suspension are unstable. They settle down after sometime when the suspension is kept undisturbed. This is known as precipitate. • It should be noted that suspension-and precipitate are actually the same. The particles of the solid in the suspended form represent suspension. When they settle, a precipitate result. |
