Electromotive force of a cell is more than the terminal potential difference (correct the sentence if necessary)

Question

Arun · Answer

Thus is correct .emf is the potential difference across the two terminals of a voltage source when it is not connected to any circuit. And once it is connected to a circuit, the voltage reduces slightly because of the internal resistance of the voltage source

Vikas TU · Answer

Dear student The statement means the maximum potential difference (work done in moving unit charge from one point to another) between two electrodes or terminals of a cell in an open circuit i.e when cell is delivering no current, is called electromotive force of the cell, Good Luck
