EMF is the work done by the cell in moving a coulomb of charge across its terminals. It represents the energy transferred per coulomb to the charges. Some of this energy is lost as heat due to internal energy. Hence the net energy gained by the charge = the emf - heat lost. This net energy gained per coulomb is called the terminal voltage. This is the voltage across the ends of the battery.
