Which wire is the most dangerous in a plug?

The Active wire is always either Red (in a 3 core Red, Black and Green cable) or Brown (in a 3 core Brown, Blue and Green/Yellow cable). You can also be electrocuted by the neutral (Black or Blue) wire if the active is still supplying current through a device. The only truly safe way to handle mains wiring is to completely isolate the circuit at the fuse board.

How does acid generate electricity?

Acid itself cannot generate electricity. The electricity is generated by the flow of the electrons. So we can use active metal & inactive medal with acid to generate electricity. For example. If you put a copper rod and a zinc rod in acid solution (for example, HCl), connect the two rods with a conductive wire (metal wire). The the electricity will be generated because the electrons will move from the Zinc (active) rod to the copper (inactive) rod
