<h2>Answer 1) Colloids</h2><h3>Explanation : </h3>

When two substances that cannot dissolve each other are mixed, a mixture is formed. a heterogeneous mixture that has very small dispersed particles and stays mixed for a long time is a "Colloid"

An example of colloid can be gels, sols, or emulsions; where solids or liquids are dispersed in the mixture. It usually takes very long time to settle down.

<h2>Answer 2) Suspension</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

A heterogeneous mixture that has larger dispersed particles that settle over time is a "Suspension"

Suspensions are those mixtures which usually has large particles and which takes comparatively less time than colloids to get settled. Like salt water, muddy water, fine sand in water, etc.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

a: The heterogeneous mixture that has very small dispersed particles and stays mixed for a long time is colloid. Because colloid has particles that are small enough to suspended but are as large that they can scatter light.

b: A heterogeneous mixture that has large dispersed particles that settle over time is a suspension. Suspension can occur in liquids or gases but not in solids. There particles settle down slowly over time.
