It depends on the mobile device? Some do and some don't.

In many cases a web server sends different HTML when it knows that the device is one that involves particular kind of browser. The server knows this because the user agent string is reported to it via the browser/server interaction.

In our work with mobile devices we do now and then see a server that declines to respond to requests made from certain mobile devices, but this is VERY uncommon.

So, yes, web applications will work on mobile devices just fine, except when they don't.
