Solution

The method employed for sol destruction is addition of electrolyte.

Explanation:

The method employed for sol destruction is addition of electrolyte. Adding an electrolyte causes coagulation or precipitation by neutralizing the charges on colloidal particles, thus destroying the sol. Peptization is the process that converts a precipitate into a sol. Condensation relates to sol formation, not destruction.
