Well I was doing questions on organic chemistry.I came across tonnes of questions where I was required to compare basic and acidic strengths.
Comparing acidic strengths is fine - I remove an $\ce{H+}$ and compare the stability of the anion coz my teacher told me strong acid has a stable anion and explained me the reason from equilibrium point of view.
When it comes to comparing basic strengths what do we do ?
Can I add an $\ce{H+}$ to the species and compare the resulting stability by resonance ,hyperconjugation and inductive effect and then can I conclude the more basic one will have a stabler cation?
Really baffled. Please do correct me if I am mistaken in my fundamentals. Thanks in advance.
