base Explanation: "alkali base" is a tautology, and neither has anything to do with solubility in water. Simply "base" will suffice. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 mins (2018-01-17 19:41:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- You cannot have either an acidic or neutral base (they don't exist), all bases are alkali so the expression "alkali base" is an unnecessary repetition of synonyms. |
