Alkali is a basic, ionic salt of an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal element. Alkalis are best known for being bases that dissolve in water. (Most common form is hydroxide.)
A base is most commonly thought of as an aqueous substance that can accept H+ ions.
A soluble base is also often referred to as an alkali if hydroxide ions (OH−) are involved.
"All alkali are bases but not all bases are alkali"
Alkali substances are bases that dissolve in water, while alkaline substances are compounds that have a pH greater than 7.
Alkaline substances have a pH greater than 7, while alkali substances are specifically bases that can dissolve in water.
The difference is not very big, even quite formally, I'd say.Alkali are hydroxidesBase is a substance capable of reaction with protons (H+ ions) donated by acids.So:All alkali's in solution are bases,but not all bases are alkali: for example NH3 basic but not a hydroxide of a metal ion.

The difference between accounting and auditing?"
A base in chemistry is a substance that can accept hydrogen ions(acids) or more generally, donate electron pairs. A soluble base is referred to as an alkali if it contains and releases hydroxide ions (OH−) quantitatively.Soluble- (of a substance) capable of being dissolved.
Bases are substances that can accept protons, while alkaline refers specifically to a solution with a pH greater than 7 due to the presence of bases. In other words, all alkaline solutions contain bases, but not all bases lead to alkaline solutions.
no but you can tell the difference by taste

The pH level of bases is above 7. When a base is soluble it's called alkaline. Alkali have pH levels between 7 and 14.
Alkali does not Stand for anything its a name given to those bases that dissolve in water. For example NaOH is a BASE that can dissolve in water so its an alkali another important thing is that all Alkali's are bases but all bases are NOT alkali's.
