What is electricity.
If you mean a dual voltage motor 120/240 then yes these will operate on a 240 volt home distribution system.
No, the receptacle's rating is 240 volt and that is the maximum voltage allow to be applied to that device. To prevent this condition from happening 277 volt receptacles and switches have a larger box that they fit into. The retaining screws are set apart further that a 240 volt device which makes it impossible to install a 240 volt device in a 277 volt junction box.
Add 25% so it comes to 42 amps
yes 240volts is 240 volts
It is not just the outlet, but the wiring and breakers that need to be compatible with your 240 Volt appliance. Get an electrician to look at your requirement.

No. The 1-phase 240 setting on your computer's power supply is for the 240V wall outlets in other countries. The 240 outlets in your home are 2-phase 240.
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.To operate a 240 volt load in the home you use two adjacent breakers. This will give you a voltage of 240 volts where as one breaker to neutral will give you 120 volts.
240
Yes

no
No, a 240 volt device runs on 240, and a 120 volt device runs on 120. Attempting to run a device on incompatible voltage results in damage.

What kind of appliances? All electric ranges and dryers are 240 volt. You can get them anywhere appliances are sold.
Yes 220 & 240 are considered the same.
