Logic tells me it is not correct since "suffice" is a synonym of sufficient. You would never say "sufficient it to say" would you. So why say "suffice it to say"?

What is wrong in the sentence we hope that it would suffice to all your requirements?

The sentence "we hope that it would suffice to all your requirements" contains a subject-verb agreement error. The pronoun "it" does not agree in number with the plural noun "requirements." To correct this, the sentence should be revised to say "we hope that it would suffice for all your requirements" or "we hope that they would suffice to meet all your requirements."

What is the difference between sufficient and suffice?

Suffice is a verb, sufficient is an adjective. So: 1) You can say "My dessert was sufficient", just as you can say "My dessert was green" or "My dessert was sweet". These are all adjectives. 2) Alternatively, you could say "My dessert will suffice", just as you can say "My dessert will sell" or "My dessert will explode". These are all verbs. The interesting thing is that you can, as an alternative to example 2, say "My dessert will be sufficient", thereby using the adjective to achieve the same meaning. However, by contrast there is not a corresponding alternative to example 1: You can not say "My dessert was suffice", yet you CAN say "My dessert was sold" due to the word "sold" being capable of acting both like an verb and an adjective depending on the context (Unlike "Sell", "Suffice" does not have a related word that can serve as both a verb and an adjective (that I can think of!)).
