To Prepare Ferric Hydroxide , [Fe(OH)3]  sol

Chemistry Lab Manual NCERT Solutions Class 12 Chemistry Sample Papers

Theory
Ferric hydroxide forms a lyophobic sol. The substances such as metal hydroxides or sulphides which are
insoluble and do not readily give colloidal solutions on treatment with water are called lyophobic colloids.
Ferric hydroxide sol is prepared by the hydrolysis of ferric chloride with boiling distilled water. The reaction
that takes place can be represented as Chat with us on WhatsApp

General Knowledge

The hydrolysis reaction produces insoluble ferric hydroxide particles which undergo agglomerisation to Scholarships for Students
yield bigger particles of colloidal dimensions. These particles adsorb Fe3+ ions preferentially from the
solution to give positive charge to the sol particles. Stability of the sol is due to the charge on the sol Class 12 Maths NCERT Solutions

particles. Hydrochloric acid which is produced during hydrolysis tries to destabilize the sol and hence it Class 11 Maths NCERT Solutions
must be removed from the sol by dialysis process otherwise sol will not be stable.

2. To this cleaned ask, add 100 ml of distilled water and heat it to boil by placing the ask on a wire-
gauze. NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 7
3. Add ferric chloride solution drop wise (by the use of a burette or a dropper) to the boiling water.

4. Continue heating until deep red or brown solution of ferric hydroxide is obtained. Replace the water
lost by evaporation during boiling at regular intervals. NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 9
5. Keep the contents of conical ask undisturbed for sometime at room temperature. Label the solution

as “ferric hydroxide sol”.

Precautions
NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 12

1. Since ferric hydroxide sol is affected by impurities, the apparatus required for the preparation of sol NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 13
should be thoroughly cleaned by steaming-out process.
NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 14
2. Add ferric chloride solution drop wise.
3. Heating is continued till the desired sol is obtained. NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 15
4. Hydrochloric acid formed as a result of hydrolysis of ferric chloride is removed by
NCERT Solutions for Class 10 Science Chapter 16
dialysis process otherwise it would destablise the sol.
