Question
What is the main cause of charge on a colloidal solution?
✓
Answer
The charge on the colloidal particles is due to adsorption of common ions of the electrolyte on the surface of the colloidal particles, e.g., $\mathrm{Fe}^3+$ from $\mathrm{FeCl}_3$ on the surface of $\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{OH})_3$ particles.
