Electrical work done in one second is equal to electrical potential multiplied by total charge passed If we want to obtain maximum work from a galvanic cell then charge has to be passed reversibly The reversible work done by a galvanic cell is equal to decrease in its Gibbs energy and therefore if the emf of the cell is E and nF is the amount of charge passed and AG is the Gibbs energy of the reaction then
