One litre of a sample of hard water contains 1 mg of CaCl2 and 1 mg of MgCl2 Find out the total hardness in terms of parts of CaCO3 per 106 parts of water by mass, (i) Mol. Mass of CaCl2 = 111 |
Answer» Now lllg CaCl2 = 100g of CaCO3 1 mg of CaCl2 = \(\frac{100}{111}\) × 1 mg of CaCO = 0.9 mg of CaCO3 (ii) Mol. Mass of MgCk = 95 Now 95g of MgCl2 = 100g of CaCO3 1 mg of MgCl2 = \(\frac{100}{95}\) × 1 mg of CaCO3 = 1.05 mg of CaCO3 Thus, 1 litre of hard water contain = 0.90 + 1.05 = 1.95 mg of CaCO3. |
