Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a classic example of a strong base because it produces hydroxide (OH-) ions and dissociates completely in water. Ammonia is an example of a weak base because it is a proton acceptor.

∙ 8y agoThere are two accepted definitions of bases.
The more usual is the Bronsted-Lowry definition: a base is a species which can accept a proton (hydrogen ion).
The Lewis theory is of wider application (though it would only be used in more advanced work) and defines a base as an electron pair acceptor.

But technically it is an amphoteric substance, meaning it can act as both an acid and a base. However, it is very weak in both respects.
