Yep, everything with 'hydroxide' can be called an alkali no matter its state of matter. :)

Is sodium an alkaline?
sodium oxide (solid) is NOT an alkali. sodium oxide forms sodium hydroxide (aqueous) is an alkali. so sodium oxide becomes an alkali only when in aqueous form and in aqueous form it is called sodium hydroxide.
How will Recover sodium hydroxide from lye?
Lye is another word for a strong alkali, and sodium hydroxide happens to be the most common. If you have lye in a water solution, there is no way you can get the NaOH out of it. But solid lye or solid drain cleaner provides the solid form of the product.
What products have alkali in them?
Toothpaste and solid soap- contain "sodium hydroxide". Indigestion tablets- contain "calcium carbonate." Washing powder- contain "sodium bicarbonate". Liquid soap- contain "potassium hydroxide"
Solid sodium hydroxide Decomposes into gaseous water and solid sodium oxide?
No, solid sodium hydroxide absorbes moisture from air and becomes hydrated , if it is allow to decompose by strong heating it again converted into sodium hydroxide on cooling.
What is the state of sodium hydroxide?
The state of sodium hydroxide is solid at a room temperature. The formula is NaOH (s)
Is sodium hydroxide solid?
Yes. Sodium hydroxide is solid under standard conditions, but it is often distributed in an aqueous solution.
What is the difference between the base and the alkaline?
An Alkali is a soluble base. A Base may be a ssolid , that will dissolve in water, whereupon it becomes an alkali. Sodium oxide is a solid base (Na2O) . However, when it is dissolved in water it becomes the alkali sodium hydroxide. (NaOH) Na2O + H2O = 2NaOH .
What state is sodium hydroxide at room temperature?
Solid.
How is aqueous sodium hydroxide prepared from solid sodium hydroxide?

Why do the solid sodium hydroxide and aluminium powder not react when stored in a sealed container?
Sodium hydroxide must be dissociated in water.
Is sodium a liquid solid or has?
Sodium is an alkali metal in the first group of the periodic table.Sodium is a solid at room temperature.
If solid sodium hydroxide were added to neutralize the HCl would this reverse the reaction and cause the sodium chloride to redissolve?
No, adding solid sodium hydroxide to neutralize hydrochloric acid (HCl) would not cause sodium chloride to redissolve. The reaction between sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid forms water and sodium chloride, which remains in its dissolved form. The addition of solid sodium hydroxide would simply further neutralize the acid and increase the concentration of the resulting sodium chloride solution.
