Every pure liquid or solid is neglected while writing the equilibrium constant as its concentration do not change with time...hence water is neglected when its use in excess as a solvent or in pure excess form...its not neglected when its formed in the product of a reaction

A+b----c+water here water only in small quantity hence its not neglected
