Can - sure. A hippo certainly can gape wide enough to get a snake in there and swallow it.

But hippos are herbivores, plant eaters, and wouldn't deliberately try to eat a snake.

It is unlikely for a lion to successfully prey on a fully grown rhino due to the rhino's size, strength, and thick skin. However, lions have been known to scavenge on rhino carcasses or target young or injured rhinos.

Yes. But hunting down an adult hippo is not practically possible for a lion. Though, it may hunt down young hippos that stray off from their family

Of course yes, but they cannot kill a adult hippo. They may kill a baby hippo that has strayed off from its mother.
