What would happen if no sal bridge were used in an electrochemical cell (like Zn-Cu cell)? |
| Answer» Solution :The metal `(Zn^(2+))` formed by the LOSS of electrons will accumulate in one electrode and the negative IONS `(SO_(4)^(2-))` will accumulate in the other. THUS, the solutions will develop charges and the current stops FLOWING. Moreover, inner circuit is not completed. | |
