The acid species H+(aq) may be represented as the hydronium, that is the hydrated species, how can u write an qguation showing the association of H+ with water molecules?
Answer:
H+(aq) is shorthand for the hydronium ion: H3O+
Hence for water:
2H2O(l) --> H3O+(aq) + OH-(aq)
Note that the reaction is reversible, and in reality only small numbers of water molecules undergo ionisation.
On the other hand if you mean solvation of these ions then all I can say is that in cold water, 6 water molecules can hydrate a hydronium ion --> H3O+(H2O)6
