No, they're all the same. Each string is tuned in the same manner. However, it may be found to be more difficult to play certain chords on an acoustic than an electric due to neck differences, but the finger placement of the chords on both are the same.

There is no difference in chords, whether played on an electric, acoustic or classical.

Most Guitarists who play chords on an acoustic guitar usually try to play with open strings, and this is why they use a capo to allow them to play chords for the most open strings. This is because it sounds more ringing and less of a "muffled" sound (and easier for those who are not as accomplished). The Electric Guitar has less difference between the open string chords and barr (or other fingering) chords. However, a popular technique is playing power chords on the electric -- just the lower 3 strings in the barr chord positioning; this is rarely used on the acoustic guitar.

If it is a guitar, it has a neck, it has frets, and it has 6strings, then it has the same chords. Electric and Acoustic Guitars are almost exactly similar. The only differnces in Electric and Acoustic are the wood, the sound, and the fact that you have to plug in into an amp if you wanna hear the electric unlike the acoustic where theres a huge soundhole in the middle.

Actually, everything is the same on the electric and acoustic guitar.

There is no rule, and everything is absolutely the same on both kinds of guitars.
