The coagulation of `200 mL` of a positive colloid took place when `0.73 g HCl` was added to it without changing the volume much. The flocculation value of `HCl` for the colloid is a. `36.5` , b. `100` , c. `200` , d. `150`

Answer» `200mL` of the sol requires `0.73gHCl`
Moles of `HCl=(0.73)/(36.5)mol=0.02mol=20.0mmol`
Therefore, `1000mL(1L)` of the sol will require `=(20)/(200)xx1000=100m mol` `200mL` of the sol requires `0.73gHCl`
Moles of `HCl=(0.73)/(36.5)mol=0.02mol=20.0mmol`
Therefore, `1000mL(1L)` of the sol will require `=(20)/(200)xx1000=100m mol`

Which of the following options are correct?A. Micelle formation by soap in aqueous solution is possible at all temperaturesB. Micelle formation by soap in aqueous solution occurs above a particular concentrationC. On dilution of soap solution micelles may revert to individual ionsD. Soap solution behaves as a normal strong electrolyte at all concentrations

Answer» Correct Answer - B::C
Micelle formation Some substances at low concentration behaves as a normal electrolytes but at higher concentration exhibit colloidal behaviour due to formation of micelles.
CMC (Critical Micelle Concentration ) The concentration above which it behaves as a micelle known as critical micelle concentration (CMC).
e.g., soap solution in aqueous solution above particular concentration (called CMC `=10^(-4)-10^(3) moL^(-1)`) forms soap micelles.
On dilution soap solution behaves as a normal electrolyte and after adding excess of water intermolecular force of attraction between the soap particles decreases and soap solution micelles may revert to individual ions.
