in a recent chemistry experiment at school, two voltaic (galvanic) cells were set up with the same solutions in either beaker (one being Copper Sulfate, and the other was another metal solution) anyway, one had a potassium nitrate salt bridge, the other a copper wire salt bridge...
sooooooooooo how come the one with the copper wire as the salt bridge still worked and produced a current when the ions cannot flow in between the solutions?
the teacher was unable to answer this and apparently the school has emailed a university to ask and even they could not provide an answer does anyone have any idea?
