What is the difference between emf and potential difference in a battery?

Emf is the energy required to move a charge, while potential difference is the work done in moving a charge against the electric field. (correct)

Emf is the potential difference, while potential difference is the emf.

Emf and potential difference are the same thing in a battery.

Emf is the work done in moving a charge, while potential difference is the energy required to move a charge against the electric field.
