What is the Ka of OHX− and Kb of HX3OX+? Have these constants been determined?
Answer
For OX2−, the pKb is approximately −22, so the pKa of hydroxide is about 36.

For hydronium, the reference Fred Senese cited
Protonated hydronium dication...
suggests that at acidities of Hammet acidity function Ho=−25 to −28, protonated hydronium can be present.
