If AgNO3 is added to KI medium then negative charged sol is formed due to adsorption of iodide ions from KI onto the AgI precipitate.

If KI is added to AgNO3 then postive sol is formed due to Ag+ ions in solution which get adsorbed on AgI.

In this case answer should be a)

Hello Student
The two compounds will first react to form AgI as a product.
Since, AgNO3 is in excess and KI has been added, hence Ag+ ions in solution will be in excess in the solution and get absorbed on AgI, creating positively charged Sols.
AgI + AgNO3 → [AgI]Ag+ + NO3-
