as a cu wire is a conductor, electrical current does go through it, but some of the electrical energy gets converted into heat energy, and that is why the wire aslo heats up a bit.

What happens when electric current is passed through acidified water?

When electric current is passed through acidified water (a mixture of water and an acid such as HCl), electrolysis occurs. The water molecules (H2O) are split into hydrogen gas (H2) at the cathode and oxygen gas (O2) at the anode. The overall reaction can be represented as: 2H2O(l) -> 2H2(g) + O2(g).
