No, because the sand particles do not dissolve and in time will settle at the bottom making it a suspension.
Sand is a mixture and rarely is only one compound.
Sand is made form a mixture of mineral grains (mainly quartz or calcite) which are themselves compounds. If there is water or air flowing though the sand at a fast rate, then it can also be a suspension.
A true solution is a homogeneous mixture of at least two substances in which the solute has a particle size of less than 1 nm. Example: a simple solution of sugar in water. A colloidal solution is a heterogeneous mixture in which the suspension is between 1 and 1000 nm. Example: smoke from a fire.
Albumin in water is an example of a colloidal solution. Sand and water is a suspension and sugar in water is a solution. So the answer is A.
A homogeneous solution is a solution without interfaces (a particle with visible sides/something floating around that is not completely saturated) that is not opaque. A heterogeneous solution is a solution with interfaces. A colloid is a solution that has no interfaces but is opaque. Saltwater (with the salt completely dissolved) is a homogeneous solution; water with sand mixed in is heterogeneous because it will eventually separate and the sand has interfaces: and skim milk is a colloid because it is opaque but has no interfaces.
It is a suspension.

Yes. Sand in water will produce a suspension

In between a solution and a suspension is a colloid. A colloid consists of particles that are larger than those in a solution but smaller than those in a suspension. Colloids have particles that do not settle out over time and exhibit properties of both solutions and suspensions.
An iron filings and sand mixture is a suspension because the particles are large enough to settle out over time due to gravity. In a solution, the particles are uniformly distributed and do not settle.
They would be a suspension, at least until they sink.
Yes, colloid is a type of solution where particles are suspended in a medium, such as water. Creek water after heavy rain may contain suspended particles like dirt, sand, and organic matter, making it a colloid solution.
