- False
Pt(s)|Br−(aq)|Br2(g)||Cl2(g)|Cl−(aq)|Pt(s)
- 2Br−(aq)+Cl2(g)→2Cl−(aq)+Br2(g)
- Br2(g)+2Cl−(aq)→2Br−(aq)+Cl2(g)
- Br2(g)+Cl2(g)→2Br−(aq)+2Cl−(aq)
- 2Br−(aq)+2Cl−(aq)→Br2(g)+Cl2(g)
- zinc to copper rod
- copper to zinc rod
- anode to cathode
Assertion : Salts like KCl, KNO3 i.e., inert electrolytes are used in salt bridge.
Reason : An inert electrolyte can easily be filled in the U-tube.
- If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
- If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
- If assertion is true but reason is false.
- If the assertion and reason both are false.
