Do basic solutions also have H^+(aq) ions? If yes, then why are they basic? (b) When a solution becomes more acidic, does the pH get higher or lower?

(a) Yes, all basic solutions have H+ ions. They are basic because the concentration of hydrogen ions is much less than that of hydroxide ions.

(b) When a solution becomes more acidic, pH gets lower.
