Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Salt Bridge**: A salt bridge is a device used in electrochemical cells to connect the two half-cells, allowing for the flow of ions and maintaining electrical neutrality. 2. **First Function of Salt Bridge**: The primary function of the salt bridge is to connect the two half-cells of an electrochemical cell. This connection allows the flow of ions between the anode and cathode, completing the circuit necessary for the electrochemical reaction to occur. ...
