You certainly can! Vinegar is a weak acid. You taste that quite distinctly! There is also a burning sensation to a strong acid.
Base, or alkaline, substances are quite often slimy feeling. I would avoid extremes of either type.
Substances that are bitter in taste and feel soapy on touching are likely to be alkaline in nature. These substances could be bases or alkaline compounds that have a bitter taste and a slippery or soapy texture when touched.
Basic or alkaline. A bitter taste and slippery feel are characteristic properties of bases.
Alkalis typically feel slippery or soapy to the touch due to their ability to react with oils and fats on the skin to form soap. This sensation is a result of the alkaline nature of alkalis, which can disrupt the skin's natural oils and proteins. However, direct contact with alkalis can be irritating or corrosive to the skin, so it is important to handle them with care and use appropriate protective equipment.
Ammonia solution is alkaline. It acts as a base when dissolved in water, producing hydroxide ions in solution and giving it its characteristic slightly slippery feel.
no they taste bitter but the do feel slippery

no, actually I think it might be like water.......Except for the fact that WATER CANT BURN YOUR HAND OFF!!...
Baking soda typically has a bitter taste, can feel soapy when mixed with water, and neutralizes acids due to its alkaline properties.
A solution is considered alkaline or basic when it has a pH greater than 7. This can be determined using pH indicators, pH meters, or litmus paper. Additionally, alkaline solutions tend to have a slippery feel and can often be identified by their bitter taste.
Those 109 substances join together to form millions of very different compounds.
It would be obvious that a toothpaste with its soapy texture, it is a basic or alkaline substance.0-7 is regarded acidic, whilst 7-14 is basic, or alkaline. 7 is ofcourse neutral pH. Bases have a soapy feel, such as toothpaste, and acids have a sour, sharp, bitter taste, such as lemon juice (citric acid). So with that understanding i would say basic. Yet that's what i think, i only do chemistry.)
An acid is a compound that can donate protons (H+) [ie. it is a acidic compound] acids have a pH of between 1 and 6.9 (with 7 being neutral) Bases are the opposite as in a compound that can accept protons. They have a pH of 7.1 to 14
Yes, bases can feel slippery because they can react with oils and fats on the skin to form soap, which has a slippery texture. This sensation is often associated with bases that are more alkaline in nature.
