  2. Yes, the basic solution also has H+ ions. However, H+ concentration is less as compared to the concentration of OH− ions so the solution is basic.

  3. Concentration of H+ can have a varied effect on the nature of the solution. H+ ion concentration increases, the solution becomes more acidic, while a decrease of H+ ion causes an increase in the basicity of the solution.

  4. When pH value is less than 7 it indicates an acidic solution, while greater than 7 it indicates a basic solution. Therefore, the solution A with pH = 6 is acidic and has more hydrogen ion concentration than the solution B of pH=8 which is basic.
