Question
Sol, solution, and suspension are different from each other in the following ways:
| Sol | Solution | Suspension |
| The size of solute particles is between 1 nm to 100 nm. The particles cannot be seen with the naked eye. | The size of solute particles is less than 1 nm (10-9 m) hence, they cannot be seen with the naked eyes. | The size of solute particles is more than 100 nm. The particles of suspension can be seen with the naked eyes. |
| These are quite stable. The particles do not settle down when left undisturbed. | The solute particles do not settle down when left undisturbed, that is, a solution is stable. | The solute particles settle down when a suspension is left undisturbed therefore, a suspension is unstable. |
| Particles are big enough to scatter a beam of light passing through it and make its path visible. | Because of very small particle size, they do not scatter a beam of light passing through the solution. So, the path of light is not visible. | The particles of a suspension scatter a beam of light passing through it and make its path visible. |
| Solute particles are able to pass through the filter paper and cannot be separated through filtration. | The solute particles pass through the filter paper and cannot be separated from the mixture by the process of filtration. | Solute particles do not pass through filter paper. They can be separated from the mixture by the process of filtration. |
