Answer:

=》All bases are not alkali.

=》We use the term 'alkali' to refer to soluble bases / bases that are soluble in a liquid.

=》Since, only a few bases are soluble & the rest are not, we can't call all bases as alkalies.

=》Examples of alkalies: Lithium, Pottasium etc. They form strong bases.

Hope it helps ⚜
