Detailed Solution

  • In a suspension, the solute particles do not dissolve but remain suspended throughout the bulk of the medium.
  • Particles of a suspension are visible to the naked eye.
  • Since separate layers of components are visible, a suspension is a heterogeneous mixture.
  • If, left undisturbed the particles of the suspension settle at the bottom. 
  • So the incorrect statement is - Suspensions are homogeneous mixtures.
