Why the deionised water still can be dangerous with the electrical appliances?
Yanjin969
Even deionized water can be dangerous with electrical appliances because many such appliances contain nearby surfaces with a sufficiently high electrical potential difference between them to ionize water itself and thereby make the water electrically conducting.

Is it bad when its lightning when there is no rain?
No, but it is still dangerous. Sometimes, it is a good thing.
Is actinium metal or nonmetal?
Not soluble in water (probably only a slow reaction), soluble in acids.
Why does leaving appliances on standby damage the environment?
Leaving devices on "standby" means they constantly use a small amount of electrical power. This amount is much smaller than when the device is actually doing something useful. The purpose of "standby" is to have the device available almost immediately, if so required.The problem is that if the device remains in standby for a long time, the energy thus used adds up. For instance, the amount of energy used every minute might not be significant, but if you leave the device in standby all night (say, for 12 hours), it can become quite significant.
Can watching lightning make you blind?
No. It's only the ultra-violet light that damages the retina, and while lightning does radiate some, it's duration is short, and (if you're still here) not too close. Arc welding is much more dangerous - because you're closer and it lasts a significant period of time.
Why lighting strike same spot twice?
Lightning commonly strikes the same place many times. Lightning is static electricity, generated in the collisions between the clouds. The lightning wants to ground itself by striking something with a good electrical pathway to the earth. That could be a tall tree, or a steeple, or a house chimney, or any tall object that will intercept the lightning strike and bring it to ground. Lightning will strike twice if the same place it struck before is still a good, high, electrical path to the ground, and if no better places have been built.
Why did my kitchen lose most of but not all of its electrical power to the appliances The lights still work but the appliances themselves do not?
You may have experienced an electrical surge that zapped your appliances. If so, they're dead.check your breakers, but I would unplug the appliances first and plug them back in individually,in order to see if your overloading the circuits.Good luck!
Do European appliances work in the US?
yes they do! :) Europe uses a different voltage than the US and also has different shaped electrical plugs, so you can't just plug a European appliance into an American electrical outlet. If you can get the right kind of current, then the appliances will still work.
How was electricity used in the past?
Electrical use in the past is the same as it it used today. Not as many appliances then as now but electricity still made everyday tasks easier.
Is it safe to touch electrical components inside appliances that are switched off?
Wires and components can still hold a charge. Or, if defective, a component may give an electrical shock. Therefore, it is always best to unplug the appliance first and make sure your hands are dry.
When was Still Dangerous created?
Still Dangerous was created on 2009-03-02.
Deionized water same as ethanol?
no, deionised water is still H20 just its been passed through an ion exchange resin to remove unwanted ions, ethanol is an alcohol with the formula CH3CH2OH.
How do you get Rotom in Pokemon Heart Gold?
You have to trade it from Pokémon Pearl, Diamond or Platinum. You can still get its other forms by taking Rotom to the elevator in the Silph. Co and have him 1st in your party to activate the elevator. It will take you to a room filled with electrical appliances, choose one and it will transform.
Why are electrical cords insulated?
Electrical cords are insulated to prevent the electricity from going from one wire to the other wire without first going through the lightbulb or electrical device. Electricity is lazy. It would rather jump from the hot wire to the neutral wire and go back to the power plant without doing any work than have to go through the light bulb and do some work. You would still have to pay the electric bill.
What dangerous animals live in France?
The wolf may still exist in France, but the most dangerous animal in any country is still the human being.
Which pocket knives are the cheapest but are still good to use?
It depends what your using it on. The cheap ones i guess are the ones where it doesn't have that much appliances, about $10. Choose small ones and ones that have appliances you really need.
Why is it not advisable to connect many electrical appliances in a multiple socket?
It is not dangerous, as the breaker or over-current device will trip if the circuit amperage becomes too high for the wire size. Where the danger comes in to the picture is how the appliances are connected to the receptacle. Plug splitters are notorious for being made as cheap as possible and not being able to take the load of more that one device at a time. Because of the sloppy fitting of the plug into the device, heat is created. A gradual increase of heat can be accumulated up to a melting point of the splitter and still be under the trip value of the circuit. This is the dangerous aspect of connecting too many appliances into one socket.
Is the shock liar dangerous?
Technically no it isn't that dangerous but it can still hurt and fuse electricity up your arm
