Default what causes batteries to leak acid?

I'm curious... what causes batteries to leak acid? I understand that
it, initially, is supposed to be a liquid, but then dries into a
powdery white substance. I don't tihnk the white substance is all
that dangerous, but is it dangerous to people as a liquid? Like if a
toy that had batteries in it was leaking, would it be all that
dangerous for that toys owner to get it on their hands as it was
leaking?
