MCQ
In Bredig's Arc method, the stabilizer used is:
  • A
    $\ce{Ca(OH)_2}$​
  • B
    $\text{CaO}$
  • $\text{KOH}$
  • D
    $\ce{K_2​O}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\text{KOH}$
Bredig's arc method consists of both dispersion and condensation. An arc is struck between electrodes, under the surface of water containing stabilising agents such as $\text{KOH}.$ The intense heat of the arc vaporizes some of the metal which then condenses under cold water.
