They all have a hydroxide. This means they are alkaline (bases)
Potassium hydroxide may be used as a drain cleaner but sodium hydroxide is more common.
Caustic Soda and caustic potash are very common.
Correct. Lye applies not completely to sodium hydroxide, but also to other strong alkali, like potassium hydroxide. Sodium hydroxide just happens to be the most common form of it.
Good examples of basic inorganic compounds are any common laboratory bases, such as the Hydroxides, e.g. Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) or Calcium Hydroxide (CaOH2), carbonates/bicarbonates e.g. Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) or Potassium Bicarbonate (KHCO3).
Calcium, Potassium and sodium are metallic elements. they are considered to be very reactive, perhaps they exist in the top five- most reactive metals. Calcium and Phosphorous constitute our bones and teeth. common salt or table salt is Sodium Chloride.
Calcium Hydroxide & Ammonia Solution & Sodium Hydroxide. Are the Common Alkalis you find in a Lab
The common name of potassium hydroxide is caustic potash. Historically, lye was potassium hydroxide, but the meaning has since changed to include sodium hydroxide
Potassium hydroxide may be used as a drain cleaner but sodium hydroxide is more common.
Na (sodium), K (potassium), Cl (chloride), Mg (magnesium), Ca (calcium).
It depends on the lab, but sodium bicarbonate, borax, sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide (or their potassium equivalents) are popular alkalis with many uses.

The most common type are liquid caustic solutions in drain cleaner are sodium hypochlorite NaClO(bleach), sodium hydroxide (lye), or potassium hydroxide in concentrations up to 40 percent.
Calcium, Potassium and sodium are metallic elements. they are considered to be very reactive, perhaps they exist in the top five- most reactive metals. Calcium and Phosphorous constitute our bones and teeth. common salt or table salt is Sodium Chloride.
Examples: sodium chloride, potassium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium citrate, potassium permanganate, magnesium sulfate etc.
KOH is potassium hydroxide, its common name is caustic potash or potash lye.
