Does it matter which adapter I use?

Each power adapter has a specific power rating, either in volts or watts, that it can handle and output to a certain device. Because of this, a power adaptor is not universal. You cannot combine or transfer different power adapters to different devices. The external battery will not work.

Does it matter what power adapter you use?

Choosing an adapter with a higher or lower voltage or current rating may cause the connected device to malfunction. This happens if the adapter's VDC is lower than the device's input voltage even when their current ratings are the same.

Is it OK to use different adapter?

Mostly, the answer here is going to be “yes.” A smartphone charger is going to be very low power for a laptop, but it may be able to charge it while the laptop is in standby mode, though you'll likely have to test this to find out. If it doesn't work, it won't harm your device.

What happens if you use the wrong adapter?

If you are unlucky, your device will be damaged. There's a middle ground, too. Some laptops and other devices include polarity protection, which is essentially a fuse that burns out if you use the wrong polarity. If this happens, you might hear a pop and see smoke.
