Solution

The correct option is A the electron is initially shared between both atoms, thus the dissociation event into ions involves the transfer of an electron from one atom to the other
H2OH++OH
This dissociation is termed as ionization because initially there is a polar covalent compound H2O.
This dissociation leads to the formation of ions H+ and OH
This dissociation involves a transfer of an electron from one atom to another leading to the formation of charged species.
