Why are the oxidation and reduction half-reactions separated in an
electrochemical cell?

Explanation:

Electrochemical cells primarily comprise of two half-cells. These half-cells assist in isolating the oxidation and reduction half-reactions. These two reactions are linked by a wire which allows the current to move from one edge to the other. The oxidation at the anode and the reduction take place at the cathode and the addition of a salt bridge helps in completing the circuit and permits the current to flow and leads to the generation of electricity.
