is Ca(OH)2 is basic in nature
anandthegreat:
yes..
But while comparing the basic strength (Basicity) of metal hydroxide then it is against a reference.

Hola! Here's your answer:
_________________________________________________________________✨
➡YES✔
Reason:↪Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) or slaked lime is considered to be a base as it completely dissloves in water to produce hydroxide ions.

Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) or slaked lime is a base because in aqueous solution of slaked lime there are hydroxide ions available due to the dissociation of electrolyte (Ca(OH)2).
But while comparing the basic strength (Basicity) of metal hydroxide then it is against a reference.
Comparing in a group the basic strength of metal hydroxide always increases as the metallic character increases down the group. Thus the inoic character of hydroxide is higher so extent of dissociation is higher.
