Answer:
When electric potential is applied to
colloidal solution, the colloidal particles move towards
one or other electrode. Positively
charged particles move towards the cathode while negatively charged particles
move towards the anode.
The movement of colloidal
particles under an applied electric potential is called electrophoresis. When
electrophpresis is prevented by some means, then the dispersion
medium begins to move in an electric
field. This phenomenon is termed as electroosmosis.
