If you are no longer using the dryer and there are 4-wires, and the dryer was 220 to 240 volts, it can be split into two 110 to 120 Volt circuits.
I would not recommend trying to use an extension cord for a dryer. the better option is to either buy a longer cord that is properly sized to deal with the extra distance or have an electrician come out and either move the outlet or custom make you a longer cord for your dryer.
Have the outlet changed to match the configuration of the dryer plug.
The four blade dryer plug brings a separate ground wire from the machine to the electrical grounding system. The three blade dryer plug depended on the neutral wire of the plug to make this connection.
For a gas dryer in the US you will need a 120 volt outlet to plug into. The old electric dryer was 220 volts so that outlet cannot be used as it is currently. Second, you will need to have a gas line run to the site of the new dryer. That should be it.
Yes. The outlet on the stove should be rated to 15A 110V.

Yes - a hair-dryer rated at 120 volts will work in a 110 volt outlet.
in a power outlet

If the dryer itself already includes a socket outlet that was designed to power a stackable washer then you should have no problem as long as the home's Dryer Circuit, and its breakers, can support the extra Kilowatts of power which the washer will take.To your question "Is there an adapter that would allow for separate use of the washer in its own outlet" the answer is No.Even if the stackable washer is mounted on top of the dryer it may still be possible to plug the washer into the existing, but separate, socket outlet that is intended to power a washer. If you cannot do that then it is best that you call in a licensed electrician to advise you.IF YOU NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.If you do this work yourself, always turn off the power at the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicator to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

Because a toaster does not pull near the current that a cloths dryer does.

Usually a stackable washer and dryer system will need a special outlet. Dryers usually run on a 220 outlet so they will need a special outlet installed where you plan to place your washer and dryer.
