The Kw constant is derived from the auto-ionization of water, where water molecules can transfer a proton to each other to form hydronium and hydroxide ions. The equilibrium constant for this reaction is the Kw constant, which is the product of the concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions in water at a given temperature.
