I. In Bredig's arc method, an arc is struck between two electrodes of a metal (like Pt, Au, Ag or Cu) in water containing traces of an alkali when the metal passes into colloidal solutions.

III. A number of metals such as Ag, Au and Pt have been obtained in colloidal state by reducing aqueous solutions of their salts by formaldehyde, hydrazine etc.
