Detailed Solution

It is given to find Dissociation constant of water at 25°C
Pure water contains ions. There is self-ionisation constant of water, Kw, which has no units. It is the product of the hydronium ions times the hydroxide ions,
Kw=H3O+OH-
the ions are equal in concentrations, which experiments have shown to be
1.0×10-7for each one at 25°C
Kw=10-710-7 
Kw=1.0×10-14
 At 25°C, the dissociation constant for pure water is given by 1.0×10-14.
Hence the correct answer (A) 1.0×10-14
