A reddish brown positively charged sol is obtained by adding small quantity of `FeCl_(3)` solution to freshly prepared and well washed `Fe(OH)_(3)` precipitate. How does it take place ?

Answer» It is due to adsorptions of `Fe^(3+)` ions on the surface of `Fe(OH)_(3)` which gives colloidal sol.
`Fe(OH)_(3) (ppt.) + Fe^(3+)` (ions adsorbed) `to [Fe(OH)_(3)]Fe^(3+)` (colloidal sol).
