Adsorptive Properties of Colloids

Description

The adsorptive properties of colloids refer to their ability to attract and hold onto substances or particles onto their surface. Colloids are microscopic particles suspended evenly in a medium, such as a liquid or gas. These particles have a large surface area compared to their size, allowing them to adsorb various substances and ions from the surrounding environment.
