(a) Write a chemical equation that illustrates the autoionization of water.

(b) Write the expression for the ion product constant for water, \(K_{w}\).

(c) If a solution is described as basic, which of the following is true:

(i) \(\left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]>\left[\mathrm{OH}^{-}\right]\),

(ii) \(\left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]=\left[\mathrm{OH}^{-}\right]\), or

(iii) \(\left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]<\left[\mathrm{OH}^{-}\right]\)?

Text Transcription:

K_w

(i) [H+] > [OH-4

(ii) [H+] = [OH-]

(iii) [H+] < [OH-]
