Surface Chemistry - Result Question 22

####23. Among the following, the surfactant that will form micelles in aqueous solution at the lowest molar concentration at ambient conditions, is

$(2008,3 M)$

(a) $CH _3\left(CH _2\right) _{15} N^{+}\left(CH _3\right) _3 Br^{-}$

(b) $CH _3\left(CH _2\right) _{11} OSO _3^{-} Na^{+}$

(c) $CH _3\left(CH _2\right) _6 COO^{-} Na^{+}$

(d) $CH _3\left(CH _2\right) _{11} N^{+}\left(CH _3\right) _3 Br^{-}$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 23. (a)

Solution:

  1. Larger the hydrophobic fragment of surfactant, easier will be the micellisation, smaller the crticial micelle concentration. Therefore, $CH _3\left(CH _2\right) _{15} N^{+}\left(CH _3\right) _3 Br^{-}$will have the lowest crticial micelle concentration.
