…equation, Ks is termed the ion product or the autoprotolysis constant of the solvent. The concentrations are usually expressed in moles per litre, a mole being the molecular weight of the compound in grams. Since a solvent that is a good proton donor is normally a poor proton acceptor, and…

The ion product of water, Kw = [H3O+] [OH−], has the value 1.0 × 10−14 mole2litre−2 at 25 °C, but it is strongly temperature-dependent, becoming 1.0 × 10−15 at 0 °C and 7 × 10−13 at 100 °C. In principle the value of Kw can be…
