Is the keyboard and-or battery broken

My girlfriend spilled tea on her macbook and we are trying to fix it. Spilled tea on laptop

After this question we took the macbook apart and cleaned most components. After putting it together we noticed a few problems that i don't exactly know how to fix...

1) Without battery the macbook starts. The color of the chargerlight is amber. With the battery connected the chargerlight doesn't work at all. Since there is still power (80%) in the battery however, the macbook does start. Am I correct in assuming that it is the battery that is broken here?

2) Second. When we try to start the macbook it goes to the login screen. We can't login because it seems the alt-shift keys are on. Everything we type is like "Œ„‰ÂÊÁ". Also the guest-login doesn't work (after clicking on it, it shows only the apple sign and after a while the computer quits), I am assuming because the computer gets mixed signals with alt-shift on. Are both issues here connected? And if so, is there a way to clean the keyboard without having to replace the entire uppercase? (say, carefully pour some alcohol on the keyboard and remove it again). Lastly, would it be possible to login using an external keyboard?

Thanks in advance!

ps. the original question stated a macbook from 2012. We found out it was 2013.

Did you find liquid of the logic board or was it confined to the keyboard?

I don't remember whether there was liquid on the board. There was however some corrosion which we removed.

There was definitely liquid on the battery.

An update to this question.

We tried to start the MacBook using an external keyboard.

We were able to type normally, but when we tried to login we got the message failed to login due to server error (or something like this). Then the computer stoped working and we haven't been able to start it since.

Basically I am assuming that this MacBook is finished.
