Want this question answered?
The mixture of pepper and water is a suspension because of the particles. You see, a suspension is a mixture in which particles can be seen and easily separated by settling or filtration. Unlike a solution, a suspension does not have the same properties throughout. It contains visible particles that are larger than the particles in solutions or colloids.
A mixture in which small particles of a substance are dispersed throughout a gas or liquid. If a suspension is left undisturbed, the particles are likely to settle to the bottom. The particles in a suspension are larger than those in either a colloid or a solution. Muddy water is an example of a suspension e.g. the residue at the bottom of the container
Solution: one phase system (solute or solutes in a solution) Colloid: two phases system, very stable dispersion in a dispersion medium, particles in the range 5-200 nm Suspension: two phases (or more) system, unstable, particles above 200 nm A colloid is distinguished from a solution and a suspension by the particles, because they usually have an electric charge, and they repel each other, so they do not collect into larger perticles that would settle out like those in solutions, and suspensions.
Colloid is not a true solution they both differ from each other. Colloid is a kind of solution that scatters a beam of light passing through it and renders it path visible while a True solution is a kind of solution that scatters a beam of light passing through it and renders it path visible .

Particles in a suspension are larger than the particles of a solution, but they are not always so small that they cannot be easily seen with the eye.
i don t know that is why i am asking answer.com ;) thanks

There are several types of mixtures. One with particles that are larger than a solute and solution is a colloid, where the particles remain in suspension.
A mixture in which small particles of a substance are dispersed throughout a gas or liquid. If a suspension is left undisturbed, the particles are likely to settle to the bottom. The particles in a suspension are larger than those in either a colloid or a solution. Muddy water is an example of a suspension e.g. the residue at the bottom of the container

suspension solution does not allow the light to pass through it because particles present in the solution are larger in the size so they absorb the light and they obstruct the path. thus the light does not pass through it.
a colloid contains larger particles than a solution. the particles are still too small to be seen easily, but are large enough to scatter a light beam

Both solutions and suspensions are mixtures of two or more components. However, the particles in suspension are larger and will eventually settle out, where the particles in a solution are on the atomic or molecular level.
