Question

The nature of charge on resulting colloidal particles when FeCl 3 is added to excess of hot water is : (A) Positive (B) Sometimes positive and sometimes negative (C) Neutral (D) Negative

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

If FeCl 3 is added to hot water, a positively charged sol, hydrated ferric oxide is formed due to adsorption of Fe 3+ ions. Fe 2 O 3 . xH 2 O / Fe 3+ Positively charged.

Q. The nature of charge on resulting colloidal particles when $F e C l_{3}$ is added to excess of hot water is :

Positive

Sometimes positive and sometimes negative

Neutral

Negative

If $F e C l_{3}$ is added to hot water, a positively charged sol, hydrated ferric oxide is formed due to adsorption of $F e^{3 +}$ ions.

$F e_{2} O_{3} . x H_{2} O / F e^{3 +}$

Positively charged.
