In a galvanic cell, the salt bridge
(i) does not participate chemically in the cell reaction
(ii) stops the diffusion of ions from one electrolytes to another
(ii) is necessary for the occurrence of the cell reaction
(iv) ensures mixing of the two elecrolytic solutions

A

(i) and (iii) only

B

(i) and (ii) only

C

(iii) and (iv) only

D

all of these.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Salt bridge keeps the solutions in two half-cells electrically neutral. It prevents transference or diffusion of the ions from one half -cell to the other

Products of electrolysis depend on the nature of material being electrlysed and the type of electrodes being used. If the electrode is inert (e.g., platinum or gold), it does not participate in the chemical reaction and acts only as source or sink for electrons. On the other hand, if the electrode is reactive, it participates in the electrode reaction. thus, the products of electrolysis may be different for reactive and inert electrodes. Aqueous copper sulphate solution and aqueous silver nitrate solution are electrolysed by 1 ampere current for 10 minutes in separate electrolytic cells. In these question, a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason. choose the correct answer out of the following choices. Q. Assertion (A): In a galvanic cell, chemical energy is converted into electrical energy. Reason (R): Redox reaction provide the chemical energy to the cell.

Match the reaction quotients (Q) listed in coloumn II with the cell reaction listed in column I:

Write the cell reactions which occur in lead storage battery when (i) it is in use (ii) not in use.

Statement - I. Salt bridge is used in Electro chemical cell. Statement - II. The ions of the electrolyte used in salt bridge should have almost same ionic mobility

Statement-1: Salt bridge maintains electrical neutrality in two half cells. Statement-2: Salt bridge transfer ions of one solution into other solution.
