Want this question answered?
when electric current is passed through acidified water hydrogen gas is released at the cathode..
Absolutely! Electric energy, kinetic energy, sound waves, light waves, heat ... all kinds of energy travel very well through water.
the water will be heated and electrolysed to give hydrogen and oxygen gases
That depends on the kind of polution. If it is polution with (for instance) pure sand or sugar it does not conduct electricity. These kinds of polution do not decompose when dissolved. If the polution consists of salts that are dissolved in the water, than it certainly does conduct electricity. This comes from the fact that the dissolved salt decomposes in positive and negative ions. If an electric current is plave inside the basin, these ions will travel to the opposite electric pole. This movement of charged particles is an electric current. It is hard to say if the current travelling through poluted water is dangerous, or not. This depends of course on the strength of the current as well as the concentration of the polution.
An electrical conductor has the ability to carry an electric current. Most of the best conductors are metals such as copper. Water containing ions can also conduct an electric current (which lead-acid batteries rely on)
when electric current is passed through acidified water hydrogen gas is released at the cathode..
There are 2 questions in this : 1: if it is about material... A: No electric charges can also travel through all the conductors of electricity like water, humans, animals, metals etc. 2: if it is about area in which electric charges pass through... A: No, If current is AC then it travels on the surface of the wire, and if the current is DC then it travels through the wire evenly.

Yes, we can boil water if we pass enough current through it......
Electric Current
Hydrogen and oxygen collect on the electrodes when a electric current flows through the water.
Electric eels send a electric current through the water to stun their attacker.
Electrolysis - pass electric current through it
e
no, when an eletric current passes through water, it causes the water to start to decompose into hydrogen and oxygen
I've never tried it and I could be wrong but I believe you could pass an electric current through a vegetable, especially one with a high water content. Similar to how you can pass an electric current through a person.
