Soil in water is typically a suspension, as the soil particles will settle over time due to gravity. If the soil particles are very fine, it may exhibit some colloidal properties due to the interactions between the particles and the water molecules, but it is still primarily considered a suspension.
No, potting soil is not a suspension. It is a mixture of various organic and inorganic materials such as peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite, among others, that are physically combined but not dissolved or suspended in a liquid medium.
A salt water suspension is a mixture of salt and water where the salt particles are suspended in the water, rather than dissolved. This suspension can be separated through processes like filtration or settling.
Water and wind are two forces that cause erosion. Water can wear away rocks and soil through processes like rivers and waves, while wind can transport and deposit sediments through processes like abrasion and suspension.
Water trapped in soil is called "soil moisture" or "soil water." It plays a crucial role in supporting plant growth and providing nutrients to plants.
Soil and water form a suspension when mixed together because the soil particles do not dissolve in water but remain dispersed throughout the liquid.

Mixing soil with water creates soil slurry or mud. The soil particles will absorb water and potentially release nutrients and minerals into the water, creating a suspension. Over time, the mixture will settle, with the heavier particles sinking to the bottom and clearer water rising to the top.
Sand in water is a suspension..
Muddy water is a suspension because the particles in a suspension are small, not settled, and separate if left undisturbed like in the most common kind of suspension made of silt and water.

Muddy water contain insoluble particles in suspension.
Soil is a solid made of individual grains, not one piece. The grains can rearrange themselves freely.A suspension of soil in either air or water is a fluid and behaves much like a liquid. In air it might be a dust storm. In water it might be either a mudslide or quicksand.
