Yes, a water soluble base is an alkali. Examples are :- NaOH, KOH etc.
an alkali
An Alkali is a base which dissolves in water. Its examples are NaOH, KOH.
An alkali is a base that dissolves in water.
A base is a material which dissolves in water to give an alkali solution. The hydrogen ion concentration, usually known as the pH. pH = 7 = neutral. pH > 7 = alkali. pH < 7 = acid.
Because, "alkali" is basically the term for a base in a liquid form, whereas a base is an alkali in a liquid or gas form so cannot be called an alkali because it is not liquid. A base which is soluble in water is called an alkali. Both react with acids in an identical manner. (Base + Acid --> Salt + Water).

Alkali is a base that dissolves in water. It is highly reactive, but never found in elemental forms of nature.

In chemistry, an alkali is a basic, ionic salt of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal element. Some authors also define an alkali as a base that dissolves in water. NaHCO3 or sodium bicarbonate is therefore by definition alkali.
The difference between basic and alkaline is;- An ALKALI is a soluble Base. or A BASE tat dissolves in water . Metal oxides are bases. If they are soluble , they will dissolve in water and become alkalis.
base which is soluble in water is called alkali. example the lithium,calcium sodium ,potassium,rubidium ,francium all are alkali metals. they form sodium hydroxide,potassium hydroxide,calcium hydroxide all are strong bases .when they dissolve in water they form strong alkali.
When an acid and a base or an alkali react they form corresponding salt and water.
It reacts with water and a base called a hot aqueous alkali.
when alkali which can also be called a base reacts with an acid, a salt is usually form plus water. it is called a neutralization reaction.
