Solution

The correct option is A d,b,a,c
Ferric hydroxide sol is positively charged.
Hence, more the negative charge of electrolyte, more is its effectiveness in coagulation.
SnCl4 has 4Cl ions, AlPO3 has PO34 ion, K4[Fe(CN)6] has [Fe(CN)]4 ion, CaSO3 has SO24 ion.
Order of effectiveness:-
SnCl4>AlPO4>K4[Fe(CN)6]>CaSO4 or d>b>a>c .
