Which of the following is an example of a suspension?

  1. Water

  2. Hair Oil Tonic

  3. Vinegar

  4. Salt Solution

The correct answer is: Hair Oil Tonic

A suspension is a type of mixture where solid particles are suspended in a liquid without dissolving. In hair oil tonic, you can see the liquid being cloudy or opaque due to the small amount of insoluble particles present. Therefore, it is the only example out of these choices that exhibits the characteristics of a suspension. Water, vinegar, and salt solution are all examples of solutions where the solute (usually solid) is completely dissolved in the solvent (usually liquid), resulting in a clear and transparent mixture. Thus, they are not examples of suspensions.
