As we have learnt

- Browian motion stabilizes colloidal solutions.

- Any amout of dispersion medium can be added to an emulsion without destabilising it.

- Mixing of two oppositely charged sols causes precipitation of sols.

- Presence of equal and similar charges on colloidal particle causes repulsion among them and does not let them settle or coagulate, thus providing stability to the colloidal solution

Hence correct option is 4
