Does the above occur because larger particles have a greater chance of being attracted to each other (there's more surface area and they're taking up more space in the fluid), and therefore clumping together? >Also, the color will stick onto the sides of a glass container in time leaving the CS >liquid clear and colorless [have photo]...indicating that perhaps the larger colored >particles don't have much or any charge? This colored deposit is instantly dissolved >with hydrogen peroxide. Adding a little H2O2 to colored CS will clear the color as well. I take it, then, that the charge of the CS makes the particles repel each other. Yes? However, I don't understand where H2O2 fits into all this. Does it dissolve the ionic silver? And what's the chemical reaction in the dissolving process? Thanks. Nina -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
