∙ 12y agoBecause a strong alkali is corrosive, and will eat holes in your skin.
Acids and alkalis with a high pH (1 or 2 for acids and 14 or 15 for alkalis) can be dangerous, like hydrochloric acid which can cause damage to the skin if contact with the acid is made. Acids and alkalis with a low pH (5 for acids and 11 for alkalis) aren't dangerous, as vinegar is an acid with that pH and toothpaste is an alkali.
A weak base will feel "soapy", a strong base will burn your skin.
On contact to skin and other body tissue many acids and alkalis can cause chemical burns and even burn through flesh. In a ddition to this, many are also toxic.
If in mineral form, they would feel as rough as any other rock. If put directly on skin, however, bases feel soapy (because they literally turn your skin into soap) and acids feel like a burning sensation (for a short time; then they burn out your nerve endings and you can't feel anything).

slimy and slippery of course!
Wash your hands thoroughly. That "slimy feeling" is your skin breaking down.
It doesn't feel slimy but it feels dry and cool!
a sharks's skin feels very slimy but at times i t can feel dry and scaly
Thata is common misconception. Snakes skin is actually dry and scaly. Their skin in not slimy
