Bases
A base emits male charge (electron in Physics) or absorbs a female charge. We can say that acids are male.
An example is Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) which we notate as 11-8-1.
It disolves in water 1(2)-8 to form:
11(1♀)8-1(1♂)
The resulting qor (electron) cancels out the existing som (proton). This then raises the pH of water.
Common bases are:
| Name | Notation | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Sodium Hydroxide | 11-8-1 | Caustic Soda |
| Calcium Hydroxide | 20-8-1 | Cement |
| Ammonia | 7-1(3) | Cleaners |
The more males there are per unit, the stronger the base.
