Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedChemistrySurface Chemistry
Paragraph: The most important property of hydrophobic colloidal dispersions is that the particles carry electric charge. This charge is largely responsible for the stability of lyophobic sols Paragraph: Consider the method of preparation of sols by adsorption of common ion. Which of these given sols carry positive charge?
Options
- AAdding silver nitrate to a solution containing potassium iodide
