Answer :-
We have got the alkali hydroxides :-
a) KOH ( Potassium Hydroxide )
b) NaOH ( Sodium Hydroxide )
c) LiOH ( Lithium Hydroxide )
d) CsOH ( Cesium Hydroxide )
Now as we know these are the hydroxides formed by Alkali Earth metals i.e First Group elements.
Now the property to compare basicity
⟩ The Basic Nature increases as we go down the periodic table.
Reason :- Due to increase in the size of the atom the electronic transfer gets easier.
Now Elements of the first Group :-
H , Li , Na , K , Rb , Cs , Fr
So as we see Cs ( Cesium ) Comes at 2nd Position from down.
Hence :- CsOH is most basic in the given Question.
