Question

Assertion : Salts like

K C l, K N O_{3}

i.e., inert electrolytes are used in salt bridge.
Reason : An inert electrolyte can easily be filled in the U-tube.

Options:

A . If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B . If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C . If assertion is true but reason is false.

D . If the assertion and reason both are false.

Answer: Option C
:
C
Assertion is true but reason is false.
Ions of inert electrolytes are not involved in any electrochemical change until they react chemically with the electrolytes in the two half-cells.
The number of cations transferred = the number of anions transferred
