Explanation / Answer

The cation similar to the proton (Na+) in solution can exchange with the protons in the glass membrane of the pH electrode. This results in error of potentials across the glass membrane and thus error in pH Measurement occurs.

Liquid junction potential error

In glass-electrode, the reference half-cell contains a porous ceramic type of liquid junction.The porous ceramic plug, which vary with the ionic composition of the solution under test produces error.
