Yes, the voltages 110 to 120 are just a nominal figure. If the appliances are anywhere within this range they are all interchangeable The reason for this range is it gives the power distribution authority some moving room on supplying a set voltage. During peak periods the voltage may drop and low periods the voltage may rise but it always stays between these two figures.
It is not recommended to plug a 110v hair straightener into a 220v outlet as it may damage the appliance and pose a safety hazard. You should use a voltage converter or transformer to safely use the hair straightener with the higher voltage outlet.
You cannot plug a 240V appliance directly into a standard 120V outlet as it can cause damage or be a safety hazard. You would need a dedicated 240V outlet and possibly a step-down transformer to safely use the appliance. It's recommended to consult an electrician for proper installation.
No, it is not safe to plug a 150V appliance into a 110V outlet. The appliance may not function properly and could potentially be damaged. Additionally, there is a risk of electrical hazards or fire due to the voltage mismatch.
No, it is not safe to insert a 160V rated plug into a 110V outlet. The voltage difference could cause damage to the appliance or electrical system, and may pose a fire hazard. It is important to always match the voltage requirements of the device with the voltage supplied by the outlet.
If I understand your question, Can you run a 110 appliance off of a 220 volt outlet? You could by only using one leg of the 220. You may also consider changing the outlet. Put in a regular 110 outlet and capping off one leg of the 220 in the wall box. You still have a neutral and a ground to work with. I read this as the questioner doesn't want to modify the outlet. Check the voltage ratings on the device. Many electronic devices nowadays can havdle 120V or 240V as it is cheaper to manufacture one powersupply and sell it everywhere. If your device is rated for 240V, you can put a 240V plug on it. If it only says 120V, no dice. 240V will burn it up.
Yes
You will burn up your appliance!!!!!
No. Attempting to run an appliance on insufficient voltage can cause damage to the appliance and can be dangerous. Call an electrician and get him to install a 220v plug

Assuming the wiring to the outlet has 2 loads and one neutral, isolate one load from the outlet and use the neutral as the common. be sure to ground from the receptacle to your conduit or ground lead. You should also replace the corresponding breaker with a 120 volt single breaker.

Yes you can safely do this. Most appliances that are marked 115 volts will operate on outlet between 110 and 120 volts safely.

Should be ok provided you do not draw too much current.
If it's rated at 110 then you can safely plug it in to a residential outlet. But, because it is generating heat, it will be drawing substantial voltage so you should ensure that the appliance is on its own circuit; otherwise when someone else turns on a light, or plugs in another appliance, the circuit will overload and shut down.
Sure, you can technically plug a 115V appliance into a 120V outlet without blowing up your house, but don't expect it to perform at its best. It's like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole - it might work, but it's not ideal. So go ahead, give it a shot, but don't be surprised if your appliance isn't too thrilled about the situation.
