Ferric hydroxide sol is a positively charged colloid. The coagulating power of $NO_3^-$,$SO_4^{2-}$,and $PO_4^{3-}$ ions would be in the order:

  • A
    $NO_3^- > SO_4^{2-} > PO_4^{3-}$
  • B
    $SO_4^{2-} > NO_3^- > PO_4^{3-}$
  • C
    $PO_4^{3-} > SO_4^{2-} > NO_3^-$
  • D
    $NO_3^- = SO_4^{2-} = PO_4^{3-}$
