    The ionic product of water increases if:

    A)  pressure is decreased

    B)  \[{{H}^{+}}\] are added

    C)  \[O{{H}^{-}}\] are added

    D)  temperature is increased

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The ionization of water and all other electrolytes, increase when temperature is increased. Hence, ionic product of water will also increase. \[{{H}_{2}}O\rightleftharpoons {{H}^{+}}+O{{H}^{-}}\] \[[{{H}^{+}}]\,\,[O{{H}^{-}}]={{K}_{w}}\]    (ionic product of water)
