alkali (base (substance), <materials by property>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Compounds having highly basic properties, specifically any of the soluble hydroxides of the alkali metals; a general term now used for any basic material (pH greater than 7). In general, alkali compounds will react with fatty acids to form soaps; turn litmus paper blue; dissolve in water to form alkaline solutions; taste bitter and are irritating to the skin. Alkaline solutions are used in deacidifying and buffering paper. Alkalis also act as fluxes in ceramics and glass production.
