What are often described as corrostive?
Strong acids and bases are often described as corrosive.

Why are bases sometimes describes as the opposite of acids?
Bases are the opposite of acids due to the fact they are a hydrogen ion acceptor and an acid is a hydrogen ion donor. In the many definitions of bases and acids, bases do the opposite of what acids do. -- In the Lewis definition, acids are electron pair acceptors while bases are electron pair donors. -- In the Bronsted-Lowry definition, acids are substances that donate protons while bases are substances that accepts protons. -- In practicality, acids lower the pH of a solution and bases increase the pH of a solution.

What types of ions are in acids and bases?
Acids typically contain positively charged hydrogen ions (H+), while bases often contain negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-). These ions play a key role in the chemical properties of acids and bases, as they contribute to their characteristic acidity or alkalinity.
What determines the strength of acids and bases?
The strength of acids and bases is determined by their ability to donate or accept protons (H+ ions). Strong acids readily donate protons, while strong bases readily accept protons. Weak acids and bases have less tendency to donate or accept protons, respectively. Additionally, the stability of the resulting conjugate base or acid also affects the strength of acids and bases.
Is sour taste a properties of both acids and base?
Sour taste is a property commonly associated with acids, not bases. Acids have a sour taste, while bases have a bitter taste. Sour taste is often indicative of acidic substances.
Are acids and alkalis solutions?
Acids and alkalis (properly known as bases) are often used in the form of solutions, but most can exist outside a solution as well.
What ion is often found in high concentrations of bases?
One that is not found in Acids, youy're very welcome...
