Which mixture of the solutions will lead to the formation of negatively charged colloidal [Agl]l– sol ?
50 mL of 1 M AgNO3 + 50 mL of 2 M KI
50 mL of 2 M AgNO3 + 50 mL of 1.5 M KI
50 mL of 0.1M M AgNO3 + 50 mL of 0.1 M KI
50 mL of 1 M AgNO3 + 50 mL of 1.5 M KI
A.
50 mL of 1 M AgNO3 + 50 mL of 2 M KI
Generally charge present on the colloid is due to adsorption of common ion from dispersion medium. Millimole of KI is maximum in option (2) (50 × 2 = 100) so act as solvent and anion I– is adsorbed by the colloid AgI formed
