Question

Chemical cell without transference is a combination of

Answer 1

In an electrochemical cell, the connection between the two cells is made by bringing the solutions of the half cells in contact, so that ions can pass through them. If these two solutions are same, there is no liquid junction. This is called a cell without transference.

Hope this helps :-)

Answer 2

• All electrochemical/ chemical cells are combinations of two liquids in general having certain chemical differences thus enabling the setting up of a junction bridge between them.
• This helps to necessitate transfer of ions and in many ways can start a reaction.
• In certain electrochemical cells, there is no junction between the two liquids and no exchange of ions or movement of ions. This is called a cell without transference.
• Thus a chemical cell without transference is almost like having two identical liquids in two beakers and due to the lack of differences there is no gradient formed and no movement to necessitate movement.
• Thereby, no junction is formed.
