Define electric potential and potential difference.

Electric potential is the amount of work done on a unit positive charge to take it from one point to infinity or from infinity to one point whereas potential difference is the amount of work done on a unit positive charge to take it from one point to another point which is at a finite distance from each other. Both have the same units that are Volts and both have same formula equation,
