Solution

The correct option is D I : CH3OH; II : KCl;
III : CH3(CH2)11OSO3Na+
Strong electrolytes like KCl increase the surface tension slightly. Low molar mass organic compounds usually decrease the surface tension. Surface active organic compounds like detergents sharply decrease surface tension
