Do basic solutions also have H+(aq) ? Why are they basic ?

When a base is dissolved in water then it will produce H⁺ ions as wells as OH⁻ ions. if H⁺ ion concentration is more than OH⁻ ion then the solution is acidic. And they show basic character if OH⁻ ion concentration is more than H⁺ ion concentration.That means they are basic due to presence of more OH- ions.

Yes it has H⁺ ions but its concentration is less than the concentration of OH⁻ ions sothey are basic solutions. Yes it has H+ ions but its concentration is less than the concentration of OH+ ions so they arebasic solutions
