Question

The terminal voltage of a cell in open circuit condition is

• A. Less than its emf.
• B. More than its emf.
• C. Equal to its emf.
• D. Depends on its internal resistance.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Equal to its emf.

The terminal voltage of a cell in open circuit condition will be equal to the emf of the cell as the circuit is open their won't be any drop across the internal resistance.
