Exhibit 18-1 Consider the Figure of a Generic Voltaic Cell

Exhibit 18-1 Consider the figure of a generic voltaic cell below to answer the following question(s) .
-Refer to Exhibit 18-1. If electrons are flowing in the direction from half-cell D to half-cell B, what is the purpose of component C in the voltaic cell above?

A) It is a salt solution that provides cations that can migrate to compartment B and anions that migrate to compartment D in an effort to balance the charge as electricity flows.
B) It is a salt solution that provides anions that can migrate to compartment B and cations that migrate to compartment D in an effort to balance the charge as electricity flows.
C) It allows mixing of solutions in compartments B and D.
D) Its purpose is to hold the two cells together.
E) Electricity flows through this region to complete the circuit as electricity flows.
