With increase in temperature `K_w` also increases Why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) All equilibrium constant `K_w` is also a constant at a particular temperature
(ii) The dissociation of water is an endothermic reaction.
(iii) With the increase in temperature , the concentration of `H_3O^+ and OH^-` also increases and hence the ionic product also increases.
