Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Alkalis.
Bases that are soluble in water are called alkalis. Alkalis are a subset of bases that not only dissolve in water but also dissociate into hydroxide ions (OH⁻) and corresponding cations, resulting in an alkaline (basic) solution. Common examples of alkalis include sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and potassium hydroxide (KOH).
