The author proves that in a relatively free alternative algebra, over a field of characteristic zero, the nil-radical is equal to the sum of the nilpotent ideals. He also shows that exceptional prime alternative algebras do exist, and from this deduces that there are elements of finite order in a free alternative ring.
