Yes, it can. What happens is sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas are generated at the cathode (negative electrode), whereas hydrochloric acid and chlorine gas or oxygen or both are liberated at the anode (positive electrode).

What is the destruction or elimination of abnormal tissue cells such as warts or tumors through the application of extreme cold by suing liquid nitrogen?

This process is called cryotherapy. Liquid nitrogen is applied to the abnormal tissue cells to freeze and destroy them. As a result, the cells are eliminated, which helps to remove warts and tumors.


What happens to a toe in acid?

Exposure to acid can lead to severe chemical burns on the skin, tissue damage, and in severe cases, destruction of the affected area. If a toe comes into contact with acid, it can cause skin irritation, blistering, and deep tissue damage, potentially resulting in long-term consequences like scarring or even amputation, depending on the severity of the exposure and promptness of medical treatment.


Explain how Volta used Galvani's observation to develop a relationship between chemical energy and electrical energy?

Volta used Galvani's observation and hypothesized that it was not electricity but it was a chemical reaction. The two metals and the salty fluids in the frogs leg tissue made a current. So chemical energy and electrical energy are related because the chemical energy can be made into electrical energy. I hope that this information helped you in understanding the relationship between chemical energy and electrical energy.signature,k.p


What would happen if you touched acid?

If you touch a strong acid, it can cause severe skin burns and damage. It can lead to pain, blisters, and tissue destruction. It's important to wash the affected area immediately with water and seek medical attention.


What does concentrated sulphuric acid do to a dead body?

Concentrated sulphuric acid can dissolve organic material, including tissue, by breaking down proteins and fats. It can cause severe chemical burns and tissue destruction upon contact with skin, making it a potentially damaging substance to a dead body.
