Alkalinity is a measure of how well a solution neutralizes an acid compared to a carbonate or bicarbonate. A used alkaline battery is most likely very weak, so it wont burn your skin, just wash it off. If a new alkaline battery explodes or leaks onto your skin and it burns you, you should neutralize it with a acid such as vinegar. Then rinse the affected area and cover it.
Alkaline dry cells last longer because NH4Cl, an acid found in non-alkaline, is replaced with KOH or NaOH, a base found in alkaline. The Zinc in an alkaline dry cell batteries tends to corrode less in basic conditions.
Almost everything. Your stomach has the same acid that is found in a car battery. Alkaline batteries have an alkaline substance in them. Milk is a weak alkaline. Vinegar (which is the base of pickle juice) is an alkaline substance. Vitamin C is an acid. There list is truly endless.
Perhaps it would be possible to replace an alkaline battery with a lead acid battery of the same voltage and current capacity. BUT the construction, size, and chemistry of the two types are totally different.
Citric acid is actually acidic, not alkaline.
There is no difference between an alkaline battery and a pile alkaline battery. "Pile" is just a term used in French to refer to a battery. Both terms describe the same type of battery that uses an alkaline electrolyte.
acid
No, a lead acid battery is a wet cell battery and a 9 volt alkaline battery is a dry cell battery.

None, a car battery is lead-acid, not alkaline.
Battery chemistry can be either acid or base (alkaline). An alkaline battery is an example of the latter. Those are the critters that are stocked in just about every kind of store there is. Remote controls, flashlights, etc. use them. An automotive battery is generally a lead-acid battery, and that's an example of the former battery type.
Battery acid. No battery acid just removes the skin

Yes, battery acid, which is typically sulfuric acid, is highly acidic. It can cause burns, damage to skin, and should be handled with care.
it is 33% Sulfuric Acid and 67% Distilled Water.

Battery acid is sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid is very corrosive and will burn your skin if not washed off very quickly.
