Solution

The correct option is B AlCl3
According To Hardy-Schulze rule, the coagulating power of the active ion increases with the valency of the active ion, the coagulating power of the active ion increases with the valency of the active ion. The coagulating power of Al3+ is highest due to high charge and small size, therefore, aluminium chloride will be required in minimum amount to coagulate negatively charged sol of As2S3
