An expression for internal resistance of cell:
The terminal potential difference signified as V is well-defined as the potential difference developed between the positive and negative terminals of the cell when current streams through the circuit.
V = V+ + V- – Ir. This is the voltage drop accomplished owing to the internal resistance.
We know that
ε = V+ + V-. = I (R + r).
ε = IR + Ir.
= V + Ir
V = ε – Ir.
So, V = ε – Ir, where V is the potential difference through the circuit, ε is the emf, I is the current flowing through the circuit, r is internal resistance.
Usually, the internal resistance of a cell is not measured because of ε >> Ir. The value of internal resistance varies from cell to cell.
