As we learnt in 

Gold Number \propto \frac{1}{Protective Power of Colloid}

Gold Number \propto \frac{1}{Protective Power}

Since Gold Number is 

A> C> B> D

Hence Protective Power is 

A< C< B< D


Option 1)

B< D< A< C

This option is Incorrect. 

Option 2)

D< A< C<B

This option is Incorrect. 

Option 3)

C<B< D< A

This option is Incorrect. 

Option 4)

A<C<B< D
