Assertion (A): The Clark's method involves removal of permanent hardness.
Reason ( R): The Clark's method involves the addition of slaked lime which results in the removal of bicarbonates as insoluble carbonates.

A

Both (A) and (R ) are true and (R ) is the correct reason for (A).

B

Both (A) and (R ) are true but (R ) is not the correct reason for (A)

C

(A) is true but (R ) is false

D

(A) is false but (R ) is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Clark's method is used to remove temporary hardness. In this process slaked lime is added, which results in conversion of soluble bicarbonates into insoluble carbonates. On filtration soft water is obtained.
