Solution

Bases do not release H+ but accept them. There are three definitions for a base:

Bases are those substances that can donate OH-

Bases are those substances that can accept H+

Bases are those substances that can donate lone pair of electrons

Without performing practical experiments, we cannot determine whether the acid/base is strong or weak. Refer the pH table for this. It is advisable to study important strong acids and bases.
