Weak Electrolytes STRONG Electrolytes


Weak electrolytes are substances that Weak electrolytes are substances that
exhibit a small degree of ionization in exhibit a complet ionization in
water . That is, they produce relatively water.That is, they is disociated when
,few ions when dissolved in water , they dissolve in water

Role of salt bridge
helps in preventing the accumulation of positive and negative charges around-1

.the respective electrodes and further allows a smooth reaction to take place

It also helps in the continual flow of electrons. However, the purpose of a salt -2

bridge is not to move electrons from the electrolyte; rather, it’s to maintain charge

.balance because the electrons are moving from one-half cell to the other

A salt bridge prevents the diffusion or mechanical flow of solution from one--3

.half cell to another
