Bases turns cabbage juice yellow or green is not a property of bases.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the property of the bases, the correct statements are:

  • The taste of the bases are bitter.
  • Solutions of bases are slippery in nature
  • Bases reacts with the metals to form hydrogen gas and a salt.
  • For example, sodium hydroxide reacts with zinc metal to form sodium zincate salt and hydrogen gas.

Wrong statement:
