An alkali is a base in an aqueous solution. It is also a proton acceptor, that is it readily gains H+ ions. Examples of alkalis include NaOH (Sodium Hydroxide), NH3(Ammonia) and KOH (Potassium Hydroxide). Anything that disassociates in solution to make a positive ion plus an OH- ion can be classed as an alkali.
