Answer the question on the basis of passage given below :
A colloid is a heterogeneous system in which a substance is dispersed (dispersed phase) as fine particles in another substance called dispersion medium.
Their particle size is intermediate between that of pure solutions (less than 1 nm) and suspensions (greater than 1000 nm).
They are known for interesting properties such as enormous surface area, Tyndall effect, Brownian motion etc.
They are widely used in industries and day to day life.
Some prominent uses of colloids are those in smoke precipitators, purification of water, medicines, cleansers etc.
Which of the following statements correctly explains the charge on hydrated ferric oxide sol, prepared by adding \(\text{FeCl}_3\) to hot water?
- A It is negatively charged due to preferential adsorption of \(\text{OH}^-\) from water.
- B It is positively charged due to preferential adsorption of \(\text{Fe}^{3+}\) ions.
- C It is negatively charged due to electron capture.
- D Due to equal amounts of opposite charges, it has no charge.

- Read the passage carefully and answer the questions
The resistance ( \(R\) ) of an object is given by the expression \(R=\rho \frac{l}{A}\)
The inverse of \(R\) is called conductance and the inverse of \(\rho\) is called conductivity or specific conductance represented by \(\kappa\).
The conductivity depends upon the nature of the material (insulator, semiconductor or conductor) and the temperature of the substance.
Similarly, the conductance due to the ions present in the solution. (ionic conductance) depends upon the nature of the electrolyte, size of ions, the nature of the solvent and the temperature.
Molar conductivity ( \(\Lambda _{ m }\) ) of a solution at a given concentration is the conductance of volume \(V\) containing one mole of electrolyte kept between two electrodes of area \(A\) and unit distance apart.
It is given by the expression.\(A_m=\kappa V .\)
Molar conductivity increases with decrease in concentration and when concentration approaches sero, it is called limiting molar conductivity.
The decrease is linear for a strong electrolyte. However, for a weak electrolyte the change is gradual at higher concentrations and sharp near zero concentration.
Using limiting molar conductivity values of strong electrolytes we can calculate the limiting molar conductivity of weak electrolytes using Kohlrausch law of independent migration of ions.
From molar conductivity and limiting molar conductivity we can determine the degree of dissociation \(\left(\frac{\Lambda_m}{\Lambda_m^0}\right)\) and the ionisation constant of a weak acid.
The limiting molar conductivity values for \(HCl , NaCl\) and \(CH _3 COONa\) are \(425.9,126.4\) and \(91.0 S cm ^2 mol^{-1}\), respectively.
