    Which of the following electrolyte will have maximum flocculation value for \[Fe\,{{(OH)}_{3}}\] sol?

    A)                  \[NaCl\]                             

    B)                  \[N{{a}_{2}}S\]

    C)  \[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{3}}P{{O}_{4}}\]                          

    D)  \[{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Flocculation value \[\propto \frac{1}{Coagulating\text{ }power}\] \[Fe{{(OH)}_{3}}\] is a positively charged sol. To coagulate \[Fe{{(OH)}_{3}}\], -ve charge electrolyte is used and greater the value of -ve charge, coagulating power will be strong. Among the given electrolytes, \[NaCl\] has lowest coagulating power. So, its flocculation value will be maximum.
