e zinc exceeding that of the copper byabout 1 volt, and this measures the electromotive force ofthe cell. In this case the open circuit distribution is as in Fig. 140.When the free end of the copper wire is connected to thecopper plate its potential is raised to that of the plate and 222… … Fig. 140. N is the potential of the zinc where it is joined by the wire,and the fall of potential through the cell and wire is givenby the straight line NQEUD.
