If you short the terminals of a 9V battery together, it gets hot, possibly exploding or at least rupturing, and the pricegouging battery companies make a little more money off of you.
If you take a 9 volt battery apart, you will find 6 AAAA (quadruple A) batteries inside. If you ever have an emergency need for a AA or AAA battery, you can try using one of them. It won't last long but if you can keep it in place and get it to make connection (for example, padding the base with folded up gumwrapper foil), you can make that emergency phone call or whatever. Keep it brief!
connect the 2 six-volt batteries together one terminal each positive to negitive, this will make a 12-volt combination, then you can connect the jumper cables, one side to the 12-volt battery and one side to the two 6-volt terminals, + & -
If it's a car/motorcycle battery you will be welding! If it's a small electronics battery nothing. Volts are not really the issue here, but amps are. And yes some old cars did or do have 6 volt batteries if not converted...
If the charger is a 12 volt DC machine, connect the leads to the two battery terminals that the load is taken from. Take care to note the polarity of the leads to the polarity of the battery terminals. There will be a short jumper cable between the two six volt batteries. The charger leads go on the opposite terminals of the two batteries that the jumper is connected to.
That is called a parallel connection and will double the power if the batteries is the same size and the same voltage, the voltage will be the same as one battery, so if it is two 12 volt batteries the voltage will be 12 volt. It is dangerous to connect two batteries of different voltage in parallel like a12 volt and a 6 volt the 6 volt will then draw current from the 12 volt and it can overheat and even explode.
you put the negative side to the positive side, and tape them stuck Hook them up "in series", like a flashlight. Connect the positive (+) of one battery to the Negative (-) of the other, then use the unconnected leads of each battery as the posts of the 24 volt battery.
The battery cannot be removed quickly! Inductance of the wiring stores energy and keeps the current flowing and decaying smoothly. There will be an opposite polarity, higher voltage pulse on the battery terminals, limited by the circuit capacitance only.

Yes, just stick your tongue to both terminals.
If you connect positive to positive and negative to negative you will have a 9V battery with twice the current capacity in milliampere hrs than a single batteries. The load then goes between positive and negative paralleled terminals. If you connect one negative of one battery to one positive of the other battery and put the load between the remaining negative and positive terminals you have created an 18 V battery with the same milliampere hr rating as a single battery. If you connect one negative to positive of other battery and the negative of that battery to the positive of the first battery then both batteries with quickly drain and get hot in the process. Contrary to folklore or urban lefends, they do not explode.
If you have two 6 volt batteries you can take a jumper wire and connect the negative post on one battery to the positive post on the other battery then connect the remaining pos and neg posts to the 12 volt battery charger.
Interconnecting Two 9 Volt BatteriesWhat happens "when hooking 2 9 volt batteries together" depends on HOW they are connected together. IF you connect the Negative terminals together, AND the Positive terminals together, then nothing happens other than creating a 9 volt battery capable of providing twice the current [measured in Milliamps (mA), or Amps (A)].On the other hand, IF the batteries are connected with the Positive terminals to the Negative terminals of the other, THEN you will have created a very serious and possibly hazardous condition!!!!!When connected in this manner, the full current of both batteries flows, basically a full short circuit condition, and both batteries will very quickly heat up to the point of self destruction, and very likely to explode.Even it they do not explode, they will certainly become hot enough to severely burn you, and start a fire if they are in near proximity to anything combustible.Therefore, DO NOT interconnect any batteries, with both of their Positive terminals to the other's Negative without a load [electricity using device within the the circuit] to limit the current flow.If you connect the positive terminal of one battery to the negative terminal of the other and then put the load between the remaining positive and negative terminals on each battery you then have an 18 V battery. This is connecting the batteries in series.
Whatever device you connect to that would get about 6 times the power it was originally planned for, and would most likely burn out.
