Answer :
Salt Bridge: A salt bridge is a U- shape containing concentrated solution of an inert electrolyte like KCl, KNO3, K2SO4 etc.or a solidified solution of those electrolytes in agar-agar solution and gelatin.
These inert electrolytes do not take part in redox reaction of the cell and even dont react with the electrolyte used.
Function: the main functions of a salt bridge are;
They allow the movement of ions from one solution to another without mixing of the two solutions and complete the electrical circuit.
To maintain the electical neutrality of the solutions in the two half cells.
Thank you !
