You can use a snap cap. You can purchase 5 snap caps from the Sportsmans Guide for $14.00. A snap cap is a plastic bullet case with out a primer or powder. It looks like a bullet in shape and has a spring that absorbs the strike of the firing pin. It is really great for dry fire practice.
If not careful, a semi-automatic pistol could cut your hand from the slide either pinching you when closing or when it slides back to eject a shell. Keep your hand clear from the slide when firing.
Have it checkd by a good gunsmith before firing.
Yes. Recommend using a snap cap.
They are the same, but the word 9mm is shorter. I disagree: when you buy a gun that is 9mm it will be different bullets that you buy- 9mm, ironically, are longer. So yes, a 9mm is stronger. Please specify whether you mean the gun itself, or the round you intend to be firing.
Possible.

No. A 9mm Luger is a very loud round compared to the .22 long rifle. Most people are comfortable firing a .22LR without hearing protection. Firing a 9mm without hearing protection would quickly cause short term hearing damage. But as a warning, you should always use hearing protection when firing any firearm.
I have seen it done. It will fail to eject or fail to fire. Don't have a box of .380 present while shooting 9mm.
The distance a 9mm 115grain bullet can travel depends on factors such as the angle of firing, speed at which it was shot, and the surrounding environment. On average, a 9mm bullet can travel up to 1.5 to 2 miles in ideal conditions.
The 9x19mm NATO is a variant of the Parabellum round. It's firing pressure is simply a little bit higher (about 2,000 PSI higher).
