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