Only those electrolytes for which cations and anions have nearly the same ionic mobilities (i.e. distance traveled by an ion per second under a potential gradient of one voltmeter) are used as electrolytes in the salt bridge. Thus KCl, KNO3, K4SO4, and NH4NO3 are preferred over NaCl, NaNO3 and Na2SO4.
