Suspensions

1. The size of particles of solute is in between   10-7 cm to 10-5 cm.

2. The particles of solute do not settle down when 

 a colloidal solution is allowed to stand.

3. The particles of solute cannot be filtered out.

4. The particles of solute are not visible to unaided eye.

1. The size of particles of suspension is more than 10-5 cm.

2. The particles of suspension settle down when a suspension is allowed to stand.
