Which of the following lists describes characteristics of a base? (3 points)
Group of answer choices

Bitter taste, low pH, and dissolves metals

Sour taste, high pH, and caustic

Sour taste, low pH, and slippery

Slippery, high pH, and caustic

slippery, high pH, and caustic (last option)

Explanation:

when we say base we should think soap. soap is slippery. Bases give OH- ion. when OH- is combined with H+ ion it will create water which raises the pH. Since base can dissolve fats, ex: using dish liquid to cut grease on pots and pans etc.. they are caustic. Biologically they can disrupt the cell memebrane making it caustic to cell tissue.
