Among the following, the surfactant that will form micelles in aqueous solution at the lowest molar concentration at ambient condition is

A

CH3(CH2)15N+ (CH3)3Br–

B

`C_3H_2CI`

C

CH3(CH2)6COO–Na+

D

CH3(CH2)11N+(CH3)3Br–

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Larger the hydrophobic fragment of surfactant, easier will be the micellization, smaller the critical micelle concentration. Therefore,`C_3H_2CS` will have the lowest critical micelle concentration.
