Name the compound used for measuring the hardness of water, i.e., for estimation of Ca^(2+) and Mg^(2+) ions.

Assertion:- Softening of hard water is done by using sodium aluminium silicate (Zerolitre). Reason:- Adsorption of Ca^(2+) and Mg^(2+) ions of hard water replacing Al^(+3) ions of zeolite.

If Na^+ ion is larger than Mg^(2+) and S^(2-) ion is least soluble in water

A 50 mL sample of hard water containing Ca^(2+) and Mg^(2+) ions is titrated with 50 mL. 0.005 M EDTA solution at pH=10 , using eriochrome balck -T indicator to reach equivalence point. In a equal amount of hard water sample, Mg^(2+) ions are precipated as Mg(OH)_(2) by adding suitable amount of NaOH . the solution, after precipation of Mg(OH)_(2) , is strired and then titrated with EDTA solution using calcon as indicator, and it requires 10 mL of above EDTA solution to reach equivalence point. a.
