(N/A) The Hardy-Schulze law states that 'the greater the valence of the flocculating ion added,the greater is its power to cause precipitation.'
This law considers only the charge carried by an ion,not its size. However,the smaller the size of an ion,the greater will be its polarising power.
Therefore,the Hardy-Schulze law can be modified in terms of the polarising power of the flocculating ion. The modified law states that 'the greater the polarising power of the flocculating ion added,the greater is its power to cause precipitation.'
