Answer the question on basis of passage given below :
Lyophobic sols like those of metals (Au, Ag, etc) are unstable and are easily precipitated by addition of electrolytes. However, it is observed that the addition of certain lyophilic colloids like gums, soaps, gelatine, etc. to lyophobic colloids (like a metal sol) render lyophobic colloids difficult to coagulate by the addition of electrolytes. The process is known as 'protection' and the lyophilic colloids are termed as Protective colloids. It is believed that the protective action of the lyophilic colloids is due to the covering up of the particles of the lyophobic colloid by those of the lyophilic colloid.
Evidently, smaller the gold number of a protective colloid, the greater is its protective action. In which of the following sols, the colloidal particles will move towards the cathode during electrophoresis?
- A \(Fe ( OH )_3\) sol
- B Au sol
- C Starch sol
- D \(As _2 S_3\) sol
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(Fe ( OH )_3\) sol
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Cathode is negatively charged. Particles move towards the cathode if they are positively charged. \(Fe(OH)_3\) sol is positively charged. Therefore, \(Fe(OH)_3\) sol particles will move towards the cathode.

One of the notable features of the transition element is the great variety of oxidation states it may show in its compounds. The elements which give the greatest number of oxidation states occur in or near the middle of the series. Manganese, for example exhibits all the oxidation states from +2 to +7. The lesser number of oxidation states at the extreme ends is either due to losing or sharing of few electrons (Sc, Ti) or too many d electrons of higher valence. Early in the first series scandium (II) is virtually unknown and titanium (IV) which is more stable than Ti (III) or Ti (II). On the other end, the only oxidation state of zinc is \(+ 2\).
