OH,O+H,0 20H-
OH,O+H,0 24,0
OH,O+H,0 - H2O +OH

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

Self-ionization of water is defined as the reaction where a water molecule deprotonates in order to change into a hydronium ion and hydroxide ion.

For example, $H_{2}O + H_{2}O \rightarrow H_{3}O^{+} + OH^{-}$

So, here hydroxide ion ($H_{3}O^{+}$) is formed along with the formation of hydroxide ion, that is, $OH^{-}$.

Thus, we can conclude that the equation $H_{2}O + H_{2}O \rightarrow H_{3}O^{+} + OH^{-}$ correctly expresses the self-ionization of water.
