Answer:

Where is the highest concentration of hydrogen ions in the mitochondria?

inter-membrane space

The highest concentration of hydrogen ions is located in the inter-membrane space. How do hydrogen ions get to the inter-membrane space? The hydrogen ions reach the inter-membrane space through protein channels embedded in the mitochondrial membrane.

Step-by-step explanation:

Those solutions with a pH of 7 are considered neutral as is the pH of pure water at 25°C. Anything with a pH of above 7 (a small number of hydrogen ions) is considered alkaline.
