**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Components:** - In the electro-osmosis of `Fe(OH)3` sol, we recognize that `Fe(OH)3` is a colloidal sol with positively charged dispersed phase (dp) particles. The overall solution remains neutral. 2. **Charge Distribution:** - Since the dispersed phase particles (dp) are positively charged, the dispersion medium (dm) will acquire a negative charge due to the presence of counter ions in the solution. ...
