NEET Chemistry Galvanic Cells MCQ Question
In a Daniell cell setup, two half cells are connected by a salt bridge. Describe the role of the salt bridge in this electrochemical cell.
To allow the flow of ions and maintain electrical neutrality.
To facilitate the transfer of electrons between electrodes.
To prevent the mixing of different electrolytes in the cell.
To act as a secondary electrode for additional reactions.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The salt bridge allows the flow of ions to maintain electrical neutrality in the separate half cells, enabling the redox reaction to continue.
