Question

Which of the following parts of a dry cell corresponds to the salt bridge shown in the diagram attached inside?

A. graphite rod
B. paste
C. cardboard separator
D. solid zinc layer

Answer 1

Your answer would be C. cardboard separator

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is the question is asking what can be used as a salt bridge

A cardboard separator can be used as a substitute for a salt bridge. whereas the paste in a dry-cell battery corresponds to one of the solutions in the voltaic cell.

Also I took the test, hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A salt bridge in an electrochemical cell helps in maintaining the electrical neutrality at both reduction and oxidation half cells. It helps in the flow of electric current by maintaining the neutrality of the ions.

Similarly, in a dry cell the paste acts as an electrolyte which helps in the flow of electric current.

Thus, we can conclude that paste is the parts of a dry cell corresponds to the salt bridge shown in the diagram.
