A solution of pH 3 will have 100 times more H ions than a solution of pH 5; that means it is more acidic.

Note that a solution of pH 2 will have 1000 times more H ions than one of pH 2, and a solution of pH 1 will have 10000 times, etc.

a substance with a pH of 3 is slightly more acedic than substance with pH of 5. Some substances may have a different pH disolved in water versus other media like alcohol or other solvents. Therefore i assume the substances are dissolved in similar solvents.

Yes, because the lower the pH, the more acidic, and the more acidic, the more H+ ions (generally).

Is a substance with equal numbers of H ions of OH - ions an alkaline solution?

No. If the number of H+ and OH- ions are equal then the solution is neutral. A solution is considered alkaline if it has more OH- ions than H+ ions.


What solutions have a greater number of hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions?

An acidic solution has a greater number of hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions. However, technically they are hydronium ions (H3O+), not hydrogen ions.


What is the solution that contains more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions?

If it is in water (supposedly meant by questioneer), the pH value is below 7.0, so it is an acid solution: more H+ than OH-
