Bases, called alkalis if an OH-is involved, accept protons. Alkalis do this by donating hydroxide ions. These can accept protons from acids to make water. Lye (sodium hydroxide) is a familiar strong base, and it is used to make soap, and to clean drains by making soap out of the grease that has clogged the drain.The soap then rinses away down the drain.lkalis do this by donating hydroxide ions.
