    Abstract:

    Polarizing glasses were made by stretching glass containing colloidal silver. The position of the absorption bands depends strongly on the elongation. This dependence seems to be consistent with the predictions of the theory of light absorption by small metal particles based on a free electron model.

    Colloidal precipitates

    The high insolubility of some precipitates can result in an unfavorable relative supersaturation. This can lead to colloidal particles with a large surface-to-mass ratio, where adsorption is promoted. For instance, in the precipitation of silver chloride, silver ions are adsorbed on the surface of the colloidal particles, forming a primary layer. This layer attracts ions of opposite charge (such as nitrate ions), forming a diffuse secondary layer of adsorbed ions. This electric double layer...
