if you tried to power it on you might have caused damage to it, the only way to know for sure is to follow the steps that I linked and try it afterwards.

It really depends on where the liquid went. Many times on the A1181 Macbook with light spills a new keyboard assembly will do the trick. If it gets past the keyboard it usually causes the most damage where the battery connector board meets the main logic board. Sometimes removing the main board and cleaning this area really well can fix the issue. You will see obvious corrosion in this area.
