Abstract: This solution book provides solutions to exercises of the book of J.K.G. Dhont “An Introduction to Dynamics of Colloids” as published in the Interface Science Series, vol II, Elsevier press, 1996. As mentioned in the preface in the book, colloid science is the domain of both chemists and (theoretical) physicists. The first chapter in the book is therefore aimed to provide a minimum mathematical background for those who did not have a sufficient mathematical training. A single chapter can of course not fully cover this gap in the mathematical background between experimentalists and theoreticians, and might render the exercises still problematic for those who are not used to work with equations. The aim of this solution book is to bridge this gap, by providing the mathematics needed to solve the exercises in detail. We tried to give the solutions in a way that it is also accessible for those who are less trained in mathematics. Every step is worked out in detail. Some times we added remarks on the interpretation and physical implications of results. In this solution book, exercises are selected that are not purely concerned with mathematics, but where rather the understanding of physics is the aim. We hope that this exercise book will lower a possible activation energy concerned with the mathematics involved in exercises.
