Do basic solutions also have `H^(+)(aq)` ions? If yes, then why are these basic?

Explanation

Yes, basic solutions have also `H^(+)` (aq) ions present in them. Actually, these solutions are prepared in water. Being a weak electrolyte, it dissociates to give `H^(+) and OH^(-)` ions. However, the number of `H^(+)` ions is verry small as compared to the number of `OH^(-)` ions which are released both by base and water. The solutions as a whole are of basic nature.
