Does oxygen level reduce by electric heaters?

No and yes. In your room, no oxygen will be consumed by the electric heater, so it's safe to use it in an unventilated room. Remember, though, not to cover it to prevent overheating (and possibly fire). To create the electricity, though, it's very likely that some oxygen was used (unless you get your electricity from a renewable source: hydro, wind, etc, or nuclear). In the power station fuel is burned, so this does reduce the oxygen level, but not locally.


Which part of the electric fire gets hot when electricity flows through it?

Most electric fires work by passing current through a resistance wire, made of Nichrome. It is this wire that gets hot. The wire is sometimes wrapped around, or contained within, a glass or ceramic former. This will also dissapate the heat. There are other type that work through infra red.

Electricity in electric circuits produce heat and when a circuit goes wrong the heat can escalate to the point where it causes combustion in the materials adjacent to it. This causes fires.


What is importance of safety precautions needed in the use of electricity?

Safety precautions are neccessary. Incorrect use of electricity can cause electric shock and fire. Both are life threatening and a real risk.


Can electricity be used to make heat?

Of course. That's what an electric fire does, and a cigarette lighter, a toaster, a hair drier, an electric oven, a light bulb. All involve passing an electric current through a wire to make it hot.


What does insulators mean in electricity?

Insulation covers the copper wires that carry electricity to prevent shorting or electrocution. Without insulation, the bare wires could cause an electrical fire, or an electric shock, possibly resulting in death.
