From a practical point of view on bases: it's slippery and it has a bitter taste--soap is basic. From a molecular point of view, bases are substance that produces hydroxide ions (OH-) in an aqueous solution. Acid is the opposite--as light is to darkness--and produces hydronium ions (H3O+) in an aqueous solution.

a basic substance is a substance which contains a hydroxl (OH) group on it.
in contrast, an acid is a substance which contains a hydrogen (H) group.
For instance:
HCl - Hydrochloric acis
NaOH - Sodium hydroxide
H2O - Hydrogen Hydroxide (also known as "water")
H2O is both an acid and a base at the same time: That's why it's nuetral!

Selenium tetrafluoride.
In an acid-base reaction according to the Arrhenius definition, an acid donates a proton (H+) to a base, forming a conjugate base and a conjugate acid. The reaction results in the transfer of protons between the acid and base, leading to the formation of water or a salt depending on the specific acid and base involved.
acc. to this concept , acids are proton donor and base are proton acceptor . reverse of these reactions are also acid base pairs and the pairs are known as conjugate acid base pairs . .
Ammonia is classified as a base according to the BrΓΈnsted-Lowry definition because it can accept a proton (H+) to form the ammonium ion (NH4+). In this reaction, ammonia acts as a proton acceptor, making it a base.
