In a solution of pH of 2, there is more hydrogen ions then hydroxide ions because hydroxide ions only form with a pH pf 7 or more.
Note: There are comments associated with this question. See the Discuss:What_can_you_say_about_the_amount_of_hydrogen_ions_relative_to_the_amount_of_hydrogen_ions_in_a_solution_that_has_a_pH_of_2to add to the conversation.
In a solution with a pH higher than 7, there are more hydroxide than hydrogen ions.
A neutral solution has an equal number or concentration of hydrogen and hydroxide ions. A neutral solution is one that has a pH of 7.0. Pure water is a neutral solution.
A base does this. The hydroxide (OH-) ion appears in solution. An acid produces hydrogen (or hydronium) ions in solution, and not hydroxide ions.

The conclusion that can be made about the portion of hydroxide ions and hydrogen ions in a solution that has a pH of 7 is that they are equal. The quantities pH + pOH, which are derived from the concentrations of hydroxide and hydrogen ions, will always have a sum of 14. The ratio of hydrogen and hydroxide in a single water molecule is 1:1.

acidic
An acidic solution has a greater number of hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions. However, technically they are hydronium ions (H3O+), not hydrogen ions.
It is an acid. So, it contains more of hydrogen ions
the more hydroxide ions releases, the more basic the solution becomes. and the solution has more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions.
