alkaline is used to neutralize acids! like if you get indegestion. If you were to use gaviscon it would have alkaline to stop it from burning/hurting your insides. Alkalis can be very dangerous depending on what part of the pH scale its on its also used in cleaners like bleaches, baking soda,household cleaners.......so basically its use to clean and neutralize

What is the difference between and alkaline battery and a pile alkaline battery?
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.
Where was the alkaline battery invented?
The alkaline battery was invented in the United States by Lewis Urry in the 1950s. Urry was working for the Eveready Battery Company at the time and developed the alkaline battery to be more powerful and longer-lasting than existing battery technologies.
What is an alkaline battery?
The "non-alkaline" battery is probably best "defined" by comparing it to the alkaline battery. Both are chemical cells, but the alkaline battery has as an electrolyte a basic solution of potassium hydroxide. (A base is often said to be "alkaline" in chemistry.) The "non-alkaline" battery uses zinc and ammonium chloride, which are acidic, as an electrolyte. The alkaline battery packs a higher chemical energy density than the "regular" or, as it is marketed, "heavy duty" or "industrial" battery. That's why it is generally more expensive and lasts longer.

How do I know if my battery is alkaline zinc or other?
Look at the label on the battery. Alkaline batteries typically have "alkaline" mentioned in the label. Zinc batteries may have "zinc" mentioned. If you're not sure, it's best to check the battery manufacturer's website for specific information on the type of battery.
Why does an Alkaline battery last longer than an acid dry battery?
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.

What are alkaline used for?
Any battery socket that it fits.
What caused the demand for alkaline cell battery?
Probably an increase in technology that used alkaline cell batteries
Which one of these battery types is NOT used to power a notebook PC?
alkaline
Is a lead acid car battery the same as a 9 volt alkaline battery?
No, a lead acid battery is a wet cell battery and a 9 volt alkaline battery is a dry cell battery.

How does the type of battery affect how long it will last?
This is not necessarily true. Usually the brand of battery is not as important as the technology used. An alkaline battery should last longer than a regular carbon battery, no matter what the brand.
Is a D battery the same as LR20?
Yes, a D battery is the same as an LR20 battery. LR20 is the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) designation for a D battery, which is a common size of battery used in various electronic devices.

Is Battery is DC or AC?
An alkaline battery's output is DC as is any battery.

Where are alkaline batteries on the pH scale?
An Alkaline battery has a pH of around 10-11
