Question

The ion product of water, varies with pH right?

Answer 1

slightly, because of Le chatelier's principle

Answer 2

Does it work with neutral water as well or no?

Answer 3

the values of [H+] and [OH-] vary with pH, but their product, the ion-constant of water, is essentially constant

Answer 4

with neutral water, [H] and [OH] are equal, and the ion-constant (Kw) is the same.

Answer 5

okay, so the water remains constant regardless of of the pH?

Answer 6

the product of [H+] times [OH] is always constant, hence the term "ion-constant"

Answer 7

oh okay! i see now. thank you.
