In terms of alcoholic drinks, an alcohol base is the type of alcoholic drink that provides the majority of the alcohol content in a cocktail or a mixed drink.

For example, the base for a "screwdriver" is vodka (the non-alcoholic part is Orange Juice), while a piña colada the primary base is rum.

When a halocarbon reacts with a base what products are produced?

When a halocarbon reacts with a base, the products produced are a salt and an alcohol. The base will deprotonate the hydrogen attached to the carbon atom that is bonded to the halogen, resulting in the formation of the salt. The halogen atom is replaced by a hydroxyl group, leading to the formation of an alcohol.
