Among the following, the false statement is:
Tyndall effect can be used to distinguish between a colloidal solution and a true solution.
It is possible to cause artificial rain by throwing electrified sand carrying charge opposite to the one on clouds from an aeroplane.
Latex is a colloidal solution of rubber particles which are positively charged.

lyophilic sol can be coagulated by adding an electrolyte

tyndall effect can be used to distinguish between a colloidal solution and a true solution

it is possible to cause artificial rain by throwing electrified sand carrying charge opposite to the one on clouds from an aeroplane

Solution:

Latex is a colloidal solution of rubber particles which are negatively charged. Rubber is obtained by coagulation of latex. Hence, the correct answer is option A
