👉 Autoionization refers to a process where water molecules are ionized and dissolved in an aqueous solution. This is typically achieved through the action of heat or chemical reactions that cause hydrogen ions (H+) to be released from the surface of a solid substance, such as sand or rock, into the liquid phase. The autoionization process can occur naturally or artificially, depending on the conditions in which it occurs. In natural processes, water is typically heated and then dissolved in water, while artificial processes
