    Which of the following has least coagulation value for arseneous sulphide solution?

    A)  \[SO_{4}^{2-}\]               

    B)                         \[PO_{4}^{3-}\]                              

    C)         \[A{{l}^{3+}}\]                                 

    D)         \[N{{a}^{+}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Arseneous sulphide solution is a negative sol. \[[A{{s}_{2}}{{S}_{3}}]\,\,{{S}^{2-}}.\] Hence, to coagulate it, a cation   is   needed.   According   to Hardy-SchuIze law, coagulation power of \[A{{l}^{3+}}\] will be maximum (as it is trivalent). Hence, its amount required will be the least and therefore, its coagulation value will be least.
