How would you use Bi as a question to compare something in Mandarin?

How would you use Bi as a question to compare something in Mandarin?

I’m smarter than him.
我比他聪明。

Am I smarter than him?
我比他聪明吗?

明天比今天冷吗?
Will tomorrow be colder than today?

yeah, pretty much this.

Compare 1 + 比 + Compare 2 + Adj + 吗?

(eg, boromir above)

or

Compare 1 + 比 + Compare 2 + Adj + questioning measure

(eg, lesson, 你哥哥比你大几岁)

If you want Chinese grammar then Chinese Grammar Wiki is best eg → Basic comparisons with "bi" - Chinese Grammar Wiki

My own experience, was to largely not spend a lot of time on Chinese grammar and just let it “seep” in, so to speak. But stumbling around, over and under a grammar explanation does sometimes help things “click” in.
