What may happen when a suspension is kept standing?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Particles may settle down

The governing concept is sedimentation in a suspension. A suspension contains relatively large, insoluble particles dispersed through a fluid. Unlike the particles of a true solution, these particles are not permanently and uniformly distributed. When the mixture is left undisturbed, gravity acts on the dispersed particles and they may move downward. As a result, solid material can collect at the bottom as sediment, while the upper liquid may become clearer. Stirring can temporarily redistribute the particles, and filtration can often separate them from the liquid. Standing does not change the suspension into an element, a gas, or a metal; those options describe unrelated transformations. Therefore option A correctly states the possible observation.
