Answer:

Electric potential is a location-dependent quantity that expresses the amount of potential energy per unit of charge at a specified location. ... The standard metric unit on electric potential difference is the volt, abbreviated V and named in honor of Alessandro Volta. One Volt is equivalent to one Joule per Coulomb.

Answer:

It is defined as the amount of work done when a unit positive charge is moved from infinity to a point.

Explanation:

Simply it is defined as the the work done in unit time to take a positive

charge from one point to another.

The SI unit of potential difference is "Volt".If the work done in moving a positive electric charge 'q'(coulomb charge) from infinity to a point is "W"(work),then electric potential "V"of that   point is

V=W/q
