Which solution is present in salt bridge?
Correct answer: A. KCl solution
- A. KCl solution
- B. MgCl₂ solution
- C. NaCl solution
- D. K₂SO₄ solution
Explanation
A Salt bridge is a connection between the two half-cells of a galvanic cell. It has a solution of KCl which allows the movement of ions between the two half-cells. The salt bridge is necessary to maintain the charge balance of the two half-cells.

About Electrochemistry
Electrochemistry describes electron transfer through oxidation and reduction, identifies oxidizing and reducing agents, and applies oxidation numbers to balance redox equations. It also covers electrode potential and the standard hydrogen electrode, which provides the reference for comparing the reduction tendencies of other electrodes.
