Best Answer

"Slightly basic" refers to the pH of the substance being described. A neutral substance has an equal number of H+ and OH- ions, whereas acids have most H+ and bases have more OH-. A slightly basic substance probably has a pH between 8 and 9, since neutral is 7. The lower the pH (1-6) indicates the substance is acidic. A pH of 8 through 14 indicates basic substance.
