Galvanic Cell
For a Galvanic cell, is putting salt bridge as a label enough or do we have to indicate where the NaCl is going?

Re: Galvanic Cell
It is both useful for you and the grader to indicate the direction or flow of the charge. It wouldn't hurt you to include it, also because Na+ and Cl- would split and flow in different directions and not stay as NaCl if I understand correctly.

Re: Galvanic Cell
I think you should indicate there is a salt bridge and also the direction that the electrons are flowing in.

Re: Galvanic Cell
Will we have to draw a physical diagram of the galvanic cell for the exam? Or just write out the galvanic cell diagram with the lines representing the phase changes and the salt bridge?
