Question

10 L of hard water required 0.56 g of lime (CaO) for removing hardness. Hence, temporary hardness in ppm (part per million 106) of CaCO3 is:

Options

A.100
B.200
C.10
D.20

Solution

Temporary hardness is due to HCO3- of Ca2+ and Mg2+
Ca(HCO3)2 + + H2O
mole of CaCO3 = 2
ppm of CaCO3 = (2/104)×106 =200
