A 220 volt receptacle is a receptacle which has 2 wires carrying 110 volts...it has two "hot" wires at 110 and a neutral or common leg which has no voltage. A 110 volt receptacle is a receptacle which has 1 wire which carries 110 volts and a common wire. The wiring in the USA is almost standardized now to where the two "hot" (carrying 110 volts) wires are colored black and red, and the common or neutral is white. To change a receptacle to 110 volts..you remove the red or black wire from the old receptacle and wire nut it off...leaving the other red or black to attach to the new receptacle (right side of receptacle usually, looking at it from the grounding hole on the receptacle ON THE BOTTOM). You then connect the white wire to the left side of the receptacle. This will provide only 110 volts now. If the wires are not black, red, and white..they may be black, black, and white. In most cases, the white wire is always the neutral or common wire. When in doubt, buy a voltmeter and check each wire to the metal box in the wall...the wires carrying the 110 volts will usually read 110 on the voltmeter (or 115, 118..etc). Good luck!
You would need to rewire it at the breaker box, and switch it from a single pole breaker to a double pole breaker. But when you do, all outlets and lights on that circuit will carry 240 volts. Best thing to do is run a new wire to the outlet you want to carry 240 volts. Put it on it's own circuit with the proper size breaker. I advise you to call an electrician unless you know what you are doing.
Unless the ballast is a multi tap primary you can not rewire it for 220 volts.
No, you will need a commercial mixer for that.
No, the electrical insulation rating of a 15 amp duplex receptacle is only rated at 130 volts. The 15 amp 240 volt receptacle is rated at 250 volts. The 240 volt receptacle also has a tandem pin configuration instead of the parallel configuration of the 120 volt device. The different pin configuration is so that a 120 volt electrical device can not be plugged into a 240 voltage receptacle.
A 3 volt battery is a battery that produces 3 volts. Many watch batteries produce 3 volts.
No. To prevent this sort of thing from happening, the 277 volt device and receptacle is physically larger that a 240 volt receptacle and will not fit in a regular receptacle junction box. For a 277 volt system the proper size junction boxes have to be purchased.
No. You need to rewire the circuit from the electric panel.

1.00 volt
You tell yourself the 125 volt receptacle is a 120 volt receptacle. They're the same thing.
A 3 volt battery is a battery that produces 3 volts. Many watch batteries produce 3 volts.
This will still only produce 12 volts. It will produce 1200 watts. watts is the result of Volts times Amps.

You don't. A ballast with a 347 volt input is a commercial ballast. The 347 volts comes from a 600 volt three phase four wire Y system. You can change the ballast out to a 120 volt and rewire the unit but in most cases it is cheaper to buy a completely new lighting fixture.
No, the receptacle's rating is 240 volt and that is the maximum voltage allow to be applied to that device. To prevent this condition from happening 277 volt receptacles and switches have a larger box that they fit into. The retaining screws are set apart further that a 240 volt device which makes it impossible to install a 240 volt device in a 277 volt junction box.
Volt is a unit of voltage.
