Current Question (ID: 18467)

Question:
$\text{Among the following surfactant molecules, the surfactant with the lowest CMC}$ $\text{in aqueous solution at ambient conditions is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{CH}_3(\text{CH}_2)_{15}\text{N}^+(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{Br}^-$
  • 2. $\text{CH}_3(\text{CH}_2)_{11}\text{OSO}_3^-\ \text{Na}^+$
  • 3. $\text{CH}_3(\text{CH}_2)_6\text{COO}^-\ \text{Na}^+$
  • 4. $\text{CH}_3(\text{CH}_2)_{11}\text{N}^+(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{Br}^-$
Solution:
$\text{HINT: More is the hydrophobic character in surfactant molecule lesser is}$ $\text{CMC in aqueous solution.}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{The CMC (critical micelle concentration) is the concentration of a surfactant}$ $\text{in a bulk phase, above which aggregates of surfactant molecules, so-called}$ $\text{micelles, start to form.}$ $\text{More is the hydrophobic fragment in surfactant molecules, lesser is CMC in}$ $\text{aqueous solution.}$ $\text{Here CH}_3(\text{CH}_2)_{15}\text{N}^+(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{Br}^-\text{ is having longest hydrophobic chain, so it will}$ $\text{form micelles in aqueous solution at the lower CMC at ambient condition.}$
