Tiles used on floors tend to be thicker than wall tiles. Also, floor tiles are subjected to flexing as people walk over them. Therefore, if floor tiling a wooden floor, use a flexible cement adhesive and grout designed to give and take without cracking.
No, wall tile should not be used on the floor as it is not designed to withstand the weight and foot traffic that floor tiles are subjected to. Using wall tile on the floor can lead to breakage and safety hazards.
