A sol of AgI is prepared by mixing equal volumes of 0.1 M AgNO ₃ and 0.2 M KI , which of the following statement is correct?

Options

  1. ASol obtained is a negative sol with NO ₃⁻ adsorbed on AgI.
  2. BSol obtained is a positive sol with Ag ⁺ adsorbed on AgI.
  3. CSol obtained is a positive sol with K ⁺ adsorbed on AgI.
  4. DSol obtained is a negative sol with I ⁻ ⁻ adsorbed on AgI.

Correct answer

D. Sol obtained is a negative sol with I ⁻ ⁻ adsorbed on AgI.

Step-by-step solution

Whenever a sol of silver iodide is prepared by mixing equal volumes of 0.1 M AgNO ₃ and 0.2 M KI , the sol will be a negative sol with I ⁻ adsorbed on AgI. The reaction will be. AgNO ₃+ KI AgI + KNO ₃ Here, molarity of KI is more than that of AgNO ₃ and hence, I ⁻ will be adsorbed on AgI to produce a negative sol.
