QUESTION :-
Are all chemical ending with the suffix hydroxide aqueous in nature??
ANSWER :-
Basically, most of the hydroxides are insoluble in water.
Some of them such as metals like Ca,Mg,Fe,Al are sparingly soluble. Whereas the alkali MOH like Cs, K, Na, are highly soluble i.e aqueous and this quality makes them strong bases. When dissolved, these hydroxides are completely ionized. Since the hydroxide concentration, [OH−], is an integrated property of the solution, the solubility of metal hydroxide depends on pH, pOH or [OH−].
