Abstract
An alkaline dry battery includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The positive electrode contains electrolyte and the negative electrode contains electrolyte. The positive electrode further contains electrolytic manganese dioxide, sodium, and zinc. The electrical potential of the electrolytic manganese dioxide is 300 mV or higher and 340 mV or lower with respect to that of a reference electrode made of mercury oxide. The content of the sodium in the positive electrode is 800 ppm by mass or more and 3000 ppm by mass or less. The content of the zinc in the positive electrode is 2400 ppm by mass or more and 4600 ppm by mass or less.
