प्रश्न
What causes the temporary and permanent hardness of water?
उत्तर १
Temporary hardness of water is due to the presence of soluble salts of magnesium and calcium in the form of hydrogen carbonates (MHCO3, where M = Mg, Ca) in water.
Permanent hardness of water is because of the presence of soluble salts of calcium and magnesium in the form of chlorides in water.
उत्तर २
Temporary hardness of water is due to the presence of bicarbonates of calcium and magnesium in water i.e., Ca(HCO3)2 and Mg(HCO3) in water. Permanent hardness of water is due to the presence of soluble chlorides and sulphates of calcium and magnesium i.e., CaCl2, CaSO4, MgCl2 and MgS04.

Take samples of water from different sources (like a tube well, a lake, a pond, or a river) and pour equal quantities of each sample of water into different test tubes. Measure the height of water in each test tube with a scale. Add one or two drops of liquid soap to each test tube. Shake each test tube five times and observe the height of the lather in each sample.
