Solution

The correct option is C The sols will coagulate each other mutually
When AgNO3 is added to excess KI then a negative sol is formed due to adsorption of I ion from KI onto the AgI precipitate. Oppositely a poisitive sol is obtained when KI is added to AgNO3 because Ag+ ions are adsorbed this time.
So the sols will coagulate each other mutually.
