Among the electrolytes Na ₂ SO ₄, CaCl ₂ Al ₂ ( SO ₄ )₃ and NH ₄ Cl , the most effective coagulating agent for Sb ₂ ~S ₃ sol is
Options
- ANa ₂ SO ₄
- BCaCl ₂
- CAl ₂ ( SO ₄ )₃
- DNH ₄ Cl
Correct answer
C. Al ₂ ( SO ₄ )₃
Step-by-step solution
Sb ₂ ~S ₃ is an anionic sol ₂ , therefore cation of highest valency ( Al ³⁺ in the present case) would be most effective coagulating agent.
