Salt Bridge Versus Pourous Disk
I was wondering if using a porous disk or a salt bridge made the reaction different, and what that difference is. Thank you!

I am of the impression that there is no major difference between the two, I may be wrong though.

Re: Salt Bridge Versus Pourous Disk
A porous disk allows exchange of ions (so the concentrations can reach equilibrium) while through a salt bridge only electrons can transfer.

Re: Salt Bridge Versus Pourous Disk
There isn't an overall difference, because both maintain neutrality in the solutions

Re: Salt Bridge Versus Pourous Disk
Both allow exchange of counter ions to maintain the charge difference while separating the atoms or elements that are actually involved in the redox reactions.
