For the coagulation of 100 mL of As2S3 sol, 5 mL of 1 M NaCl is required. The flocculation value of NaCl is:

Correct answer: A. 50

  • A. 50
  • B. 5
  • C. 47.6
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Millimoles of NaCl added = 5 Volume of the sol containing NaCl solution = 100 mL. Floccul ation value is the amount of electrolyte (in millimoles) that must be added to 1L of the colloidal solution so as to bring about complete coagulation.

About Solutions and Colloids

Solutions are described using molarity, molality, normality, mole fraction, percentage concentration and parts per million. Coverage also includes vapour-pressure lowering, boiling-point elevation, freezing-point depression and osmotic pressure, then distinguishes true solutions, colloids and suspensions by particle size, stability, light scattering and settling.
