If you plug a toaster rated at 110-v into a 220-v outlet current in the toaster will be?
hi woo
If you plug an electric toaster rated at 110-v into a 220-v outlet what will the outlet current in the toaster be?
It doesnt matter you will smoke it. The current in a resistive circuit is proportional to the voltage. If the voltage doubles and the resistance is the same (elements) the current will double and burn up both the elements and the toaster wiring. Look up "ohms law" for current voltage and resistance effects. Don't try it..
Does electricity flow even if nothing is plugged into the outlet?
Yes. If you hook up your phone charger, it is using a little bit over 50% power without a phone attached. No. The voltage potential of 120 volts is at the receptacle outlet slots but to make the current flow, a resistive load is needed. In the case above the phone charger is the load. Un-plug the load and no current flow.

Can you adapt a dryer outlet for everyday use for say a toaster over or microwave?
You cannot. A dryer outlet is wired with 2 hots and 1 neutral. its circuit breaker ampacity rating will be 30 amps. Also the plug is completely different from you standard toast male adaptor. A toaster operates on a single hot and neutral. It will also have a power rating on it. If it were even possible to plug it in, (which its not.) You would burn up your toaster.
