OH- is common to bases.

Explanation:

The base is a is an ionic compounds which when placed in aqueous solution dissociates in to a cation and an anion OH-.

The presence of OH- in the solution shows that the solution is basic or alkaline.

From Bronsted and Lowry concept base is a molecule that accepts a proton for example in NaOH, Na is a proton donor and OH is the proton acceptor.

A base accepts hydrogen ion and the concentration of OH is always higher in base.

There is a presence of conjugate acid and conjugate base in the Bronsted and Lowry acid and base.

Conjugate acid is one which is formed when a base gained a proton.

Conjugate base is one which is formed when an acid looses a proton.

And from the Arrhenius base Theory, the base is one that dissociates in to water as OH-.

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
