What is another name for a basic solution that is named after a metallic family?
If you mean a basic solution that has a metal in its formula, it is usually just _ hydroxide. Example: Ca(OH)2 is a basic solution and its name is CALCIUM hydroxide (calcium is the metal). Mg(OH)2 -> Magnesium hydroxide etc.
What is known as the milk of lime?
When excess calcium hydroxide is added to limewater, a suspension of calcium hydroxide particles remains, giving it a milky aspect, in which case it has the common name of milk of lime. Milk of lime is an alkaline solution with a pH of 12.3.
What is milk of lime?
the milk of lime is... wait for this... the lime of milk. ================================================================== Kidding aside from the first answer, milk of lime is another common name for limewater, a saturated solution of calcium hydroxide. It got its name from the process of its preparation, wherein excess calcium hydroxide is stirred in pure water and filtering off the excess insoluble Ca(OH)2. When excess calcium hydroxide is added to limewater, a suspension of calcium hydroxide particles remains, giving it a milky aspect, in which case it has the common name of milk of lime.

Is there any difference in lime water and slaked lime . If any why do you use different name?
Yes, there is a difference. Slaked lime is the term used to refer to solid calcium hydroxide, and lime water is a calcium hydroxide solution. Admittedly, two distinct terms seems like overkill, but it happens a lot... for example, "salt" and "brine" is essentially the same situation. The terms are historical, and most chemists would just say "calcium hydroxide" and "calcium hydroxide solution" instead.
