Claim:
1. A liquid treatment apparatus comprising: a dielectric tube through which water to be treated flows; a first electrode at least a part of which is disposed in the dielectric tube; a second electrode at least a part of which is disposed in the dielectric tube at a position upstream of the first electrode; a gas supplier operative to generate a bubble by supplying a gas into the water to be treated; and a power supply operative to apply a voltage between the first electrode and the second electrode in a state in which the bubble covers a conductor-exposed portion of the first electrode, wherein each of the first and second electrodes has a rod shape, a longitudinal axis of the first electrode is perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the dielectric tube, and the second electrode is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the dielectric tube.
