The best electrolyte for coagulating A s 2 S 3 sol is
Options
- ANaCl
- BC u S O 4
- CA l N O 3 3
- DT h S O 4 2
Correct answer
D. T h S O 4 2
Step-by-step solution
A s 2 S 3 sol has negatively charged sol particles and therefore, positive ions are effective in causing the coagulating of A s 2 S 3 sol. Coagulating efficiencies of electrolytes increase with the increase in the valence of effective ion. Therefore, the best electrolyte for coagulating A s 2 S 3 sol is T h S O 4 2 . N a + < C u 2 + < A l 3 + < T h 4 +
