Measuring Zeta potential is useful in determining which property of colloidal solution?

  1. Solubility
  2. Stability of the colloidal particles
  3. Size of the colloidal particles
  4. Viscosity

Answer

(2) Stability of the colloidal particles

Solution

The potential difference between the fixed layer and the diffused layer of opposite charges around a colloidal particle is called the electrokinetic potential or zeta potential.

The charge on the colloidal particles (measured by the zeta potential) keeps them apart and prevents coagulation; a higher zeta potential means a more stable sol.

∴ Zeta potential is a measure of the stability of the colloidal particles.
