Acid
The answer is: They increase the concentration of hydroxide ions in aqueous solution.
It produces soap.
Basic solutions are solutions that have more than a 1E-7 concentration of hydroxide ion. Thus, solutions with "extra" hydroxide ions are basic. On the other hand, solutions with extra hydrogen (hydronium) ions are acidic.
From a practical point of view on bases: it's slippery and it has a bitter taste--soap is basic. From a molecular point of view, bases are substance that produces hydroxide ions (OH-) in an aqueous solution. Acid is the opposite--as light is to darkness--and produces hydronium ions (H3O+) in an aqueous solution.

Base is an aqueous substance that can accept protons. Some examples are: * baking soda * ammonia * sodium hydroxide * potassium hydroxide * barium hydroxide

Ahh, Svante Arrhenius. Cool guy. Wish I'd met him. Anyway, Arrhenius created a definition for an acid and for a base -- Acid - a substance which produces hydronium ions (H3O+) in aqueous solution Base - a substance which produces hydroxide ions (OH-) in aqueous solution That's it!

Saponification is a process of converting esters into soaps and alcohols by the action of aqueous alkali (for example, aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions).

Yes a white precipitate forms when these two solutions are combined.

Aqueous solutions are solutions in which water is the solvent. Anything that dissolves in water forms an aqueous solution.
Aqueous solutions indicate that the substance is dissolved in water, whereas molten is where the substance is pure, so there is no water.
Strong bases are those bases which completely dissociate into its ions in aqueous solutions. Example: sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH).
Hydrogen ions: pH under 7.Hydroxide ions: pH over 7.
