Open in App
Solution

  1. The electromotive force of a cell or EMF of a cell is the maximum potential difference between two electrodes of a cell.
  2. It can also be defined as the net voltage between the oxidation and reduction half-reactions.
  3. The EMF of a cell is mainly used to determine whether an electrochemical cell is galvanic or not.

Hence, E.M.F. of a simple voltaic cell is 1V
