Solution

Correct Answer:

Work done per unit charge taking charge from one terminal to other inside cell

The Electromotive Force (EMF, ) of a cell is the potential difference between its terminals when no current is drawn (open circuit).

  • Physically, , where is the work done by chemical forces to move a charge within the cell from one terminal to the other against the electrostatic force.
  • When a current flows, the terminal voltage , where is internal resistance.
