Answers
Answer:
Bases are ionic compounds that produce negative hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. Bases taste bitter, feel slippery, and conduct electricity when dissolved in water. Indicator compounds such as litmus can be used to detect bases. Bases turn red litmus paper blue.

good morning
make me as brainliest
follow me
Explanation:
look dear, bases are bitter
bases may be corrosive or may not be . EXAMPLE NaOH is corrosive while magnesium hydroxide is not
some bases react with metals to evolve hydrogen gas
bases have pH more than 7 like 7.1,8.9,14 etc.
bases react with acids and neutralize them(neutrilisation reaction) to form salt + water
bases release OH- ions on dissolving in water
more OH- ions a base releases, more stronger it is or you can say that it has higher pH.
there are some other points also
but you need to know only these points as of now
