Answer:

2. 100 times more hydroxide ions,

Step-by-step explanation:

Acidity and alkalinity are measured with a logarithmic scale called pH. Each one-unit change in the pH scale corresponds to a ten-fold change in hydrogen ion concentration. Therefore, a 1.0 liter aqueous solution with a pH of 5.0 contains 100 times more hydronium ions than a 1.0 liter aqueous solution with a pH of 7.0
