<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> JEE Mains 2021

• A. A colloidal solution shows Brownian motion of colloidal particles.
• B. A colloidal solution shows colligative properties.
• C. The flocculating power of $A{l}^{3+}$ is more than that of $N{a}^{+}$
• D. An ordinary filter paper can stop the flow of colloidal particles.

Answer 1

The correct option is D An ordinary filter paper can stop the flow of colloidal particles.

Ordinary filter paper cannot stop the flow colloidal particles.
An ultra - filter paper is required to filter colloids.

Hardy-Schulze Rule:
Greater the valence of flocculating ion added, greater is its power to cause coagulation. Thus, statement (a) is correct.

Under ultramicroscope, colloidal particles appear t​o be in a continuous ​zig-zag motion​ known as Brownian movement.
Thus, statement (b) is correct.

Colloidal solution shows colligative properties.

Hence, option (c) is the correct answer
