Answer: feels slippery

Explanation: Some say bases feel slippery or soapy. This is because they dissolve the fatty acids and oils on your skin and reduces friction.

Further Explanation: The other answer are false for reason or another...

- Not all bases contain a carbon. e.g. Lithium Hydroxide (LiOH)

- Acids have the unique quality of tasting sour.

- Acids conduct electricity in a solution, not bases.
