Volume strength of resulting solution = 1.339 × 5.6 = 7.5 the degree of hardness of a given sample of hard water is 60 ppm. If the entire hardness is due to MgSO4, how much of MgSO4 is present per kilogram of hard water? |
Answer» Degree of hardness of water = 60ppm Since degree of hardness is the number of parts of calcium carbonate or equivalent to calcium and magnesium salts present in a million parts of water by mass. 106 g of water contain 60 g of CaCO3 Now 1 mol of CaCCO3 = 1 mol of MgSO4 100g of CaCOa = 120g of MgSO4 106 g of water contain MgSO4 = \(\frac{60\times 200}{100}\) = 72 g 103 g of water will contain MgSO4 = \(\frac{72}{10^6}\) x 103 = 0.072 g 1 kg of water contain MgSO4 = 72 mg |
