Caustic Soda and caustic potash are very common.
NaOH, KOH. caustic soda and caustic potash, sodium and pottasium hydroxide.
They all have a hydroxide. This means they are alkaline (bases)
A common name for sodium hydroxide is lye or caustic soda.
Hydrochloric acid - HCl Sodium Hydroxide - NaOH Hydrobrimoic acid - HBr Potassium Hydroxide - KOH Sulfuric acid - H2SO4
Some common alkaline substances include sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH), and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2). These compounds are often used in cleaning products, manufacturing processes, and agriculture.

Lye is one of those "common names" that, particularly when combined with adjectives, might mean a couple of different compounds. The canonical lye is sodium hydroxide. However, potassium hydroxide has very similar chemical properties, and I've seen terms like "wood lye" that indicate it's actually the potassium compound instead. "Caustic lye" is a new one on me; both compounds have common names that include the word caustic (caustic soda for sodium hydroxide, caustic potash for potassium hydroxide), so it might be either one. If it's in a recipe for soap or something, it doesn't really matter all that much; as stated earlier, they have very similar properties and either will work.

A base is a substance that can accept protons or donate electrons. Four common bases include sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH), ammonia (NH3), and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2).
Caustic soda and sodium hydroxide are actually the same compound with different names (sodium hydroxide). When mixed, they will just form a homogeneous mixture of sodium hydroxide without any chemical reaction occurring.
sodium hydroxide
Sodium hydroxide contains sodium, oxygen and hydrogen.
these are in alkali metal groupsso the names are hydrogen, lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium
Salts made of a metal and a nonmetal are named this way: [metal] [nonmetal root]-ide Examples: sodium + chlorine = sodium chloride potassium + iodine = potassium iodide Salts made from a metal or other complex cation and a nonmetal or other complex anion are named based on the cation and anion names: ------------------------------- ammonium ion + hydroxide ion = ammonium hydroxide sodium ion + hypochlorite ion = sodium hypochlorite calcium ion + chloride ion = calcium chloride
