because alkoxide ion is an alkyl group attached with O(negative) where alkyl gp. is an electron releasing gp. which will enhance the electron density on oxygen due to which there will be intensification of negative charge on oxygen and this akoxide ion will become unstable and would want any proton to attack on it to deintensify its negative charge . as we know strong base are those which take away the protons very quickly and effectively therefore it is a strong base
Because the conjugate acid of a strong base is a much weaker acid than water. Since the conjugate acid is so weak, its chemical action as an acid is negligible in solution. Strong bases have very weak conjugate acids. Weak bases have relatively strong conjugate acids. The same is true for the conjugate bases of strong acids, such as HCl. Cl- is a much weaker base than than water, so its effects are also negligible.

Nothing will happen. Sodium silicate is largely synthesized using sodium hydroxide only. Both are strong bases. But if you mix with Inorganic acids, hydrolysis takes place and it forms silica network/gel.
Yes
Sodium itself is neither an acid nor a base. However, it will react with water to form the strong base sodium hydroxide.
Yes. There are strong bases such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and weak bases such as ammonia (NH3)
yes, most substances ending in hydroxide are strong bases
Among the weak bases it is a relatively strong base
Strong bases are those bases which completely dissociate into its ions in aqueous solutions. Example: sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH).
Things such as soap shampoo and laundry detergent are weakly alkaline. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and drain cleaners made with lye (sodium hydroxide) are strong bases.
Yes, because acetic acid is a weak acid (therefore it is a weak electrolyte), but NaCl is a salt that ionizes completely. In general salts and strong acids and bases are strong electrolyte, while weak acids and weak bases are weak electrolytes.
Toilet cleaner, soap,Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), Potassium hydroxide (KOH), barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)2 are all so-called strong bases. Other "weak" bases are ammonia (NH3), sodium bicarbonate (baking soda, or NaHCO3), sodium carbonate (Na3CO3), sodium hydride (NaH). There are many more!
Weak bases are indeed poor electrolytes. This is because they produce a smaller amount of ions than strong bases. The amount of ions produced is what makes something a strong or weak electrolyte or acid and base.
Sodium (s) and chlorine (g)---> NaCl (s) I don't think either are strong acids or bases.
Both are strong bases and a solution of either will have a high pH.
