In a galvanic cell, the salt bridge:

A

does not participate chemically in the cell reaction

B

stops the diffusion of ions from one electrode to antoher

C

is necessary for the occurrence of the cell reaction

D

ensures mixing of the two electrolytic solution

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Salt bridge ensure non mixing of two electrolyte solutions and neither it prevents diffusion, nor necessary for cell reaction.
