Multiple Choice

The coagulation of sol particles may be brought about by:

Aheating
Baddition of oppositely charged sol
Correct Answer
Caddition electrolyte
Dpersistent dialysis
Correct Answer

Solution

Coagulation is the process by which a colloid precipitates out of a solution. The precipitation is brought about by induced aggregation, i.e., by addition oppositely charged sol and persistent dialysis but not by heating and addition of electrolyte.

The clouds consists of charged particles of water dispersed in air. Some of them are positively charged, others are negatively charged. When positively charged clouds come closer, they cause lightening and thundering whereas when positive and negative charged colloids come closer, they cause heavy rain by aggregation of minute particles. It is possible to cause artificial rain by throwing electrified sand or silver iodide from an aeroplane and thus, coagulation the mist hanging in air. AgI helps in artificial rain because :
