A strong base is a basic chemical compound that can remove a proton (H+) from (or deprotonate) a molecule of even a very weak acid (such as water) in an acid-base reaction. Common examples of strong bases include hydroxides of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, like NaOH and Ca(OH) 2, respectively.
Vlad highly enjoyed dining with his palace folk in the middle of a circle, formed by the victims he impaled. Especially killing the Turks by this method of torture became an indulgence for him. He used to order the excoriation of the skin from his victimsâ feet, salt to be added onto the exposed flesh and make use of goats to lick the wound to boost the pain.
