When an electric field is applied across an electrolyte solution containing charged

particles they are seen to move parallel or antiparallel to the field depending on

the sign of their charge. Now, since almost all of the potential drop must occur

across the double-layer at each electrode surface, there can be no electric field

within the conducting electrolyte solution and thus no force on the charged

colloidal particles. Why, then, do the particles move?
