WSS_Content

Can we attach one more WSS_Content database to an existing web application, eg http://portaldev/ ? If yes, what's the normal application for this ?

If there are two database attached to it, does the web application use either one or both of them.

You can have multiple content databases, but only one per site collection. (Many per application)
