Permanent hardness is due to CI^(ɵ) and ...

Permanent hardness is due to `CI^(ɵ)` and `SO_4^(2-)` of `Mg^(2+)` and `Ca^(2+)` and is removed by adding `Na_2CO_3`.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the removal of permanent hardness in water caused by the presence of chloride and sulfate salts of magnesium and calcium, we will follow a step-by-step approach. ### Step 1: Understanding Permanent Hardness Permanent hardness in water is primarily due to the presence of calcium and magnesium salts, specifically CaCl₂, CaSO₄, MgCl₂, and MgSO₄. These salts do not precipitate upon boiling and thus contribute to the hardness of water. ### Step 2: Reaction with Sodium Carbonate To remove this hardness, sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) is added. The relevant reactions are: 1. For calcium sulfate: \[ \text{CaSO}_4 + \text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 \rightarrow \text{CaCO}_3 \downarrow + \text{Na}_2\text{SO}_4 \] Here, calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) precipitates out, which can be filtered out. 2. For calcium chloride: \[ \text{CaCl}_2 + \text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 \rightarrow \text{CaCO}_3 \downarrow + 2\text{NaCl} \] Again, calcium carbonate precipitates out. ### Step 3: Calculating the Amount of Na₂CO₃ Required Given that the hardness of water is 100 parts per million (ppm) of CaCO₃, we need to calculate how much Na₂CO₃ is required to soften 10 liters of this water. 1. **Convert ppm to grams**: - 100 ppm means 100 grams of CaCO₃ in 1,000,000 grams of water. - Since the density of water is approximately 1 g/mL, 10 liters of water weighs about 10,000 grams. 2. **Calculate the mass of CaCO₃ in 10 liters**: \[ \text{Mass of CaCO}_3 = \frac{100 \text{ g}}{1,000,000 \text{ g}} \times 10,000 \text{ g} = 1 \text{ g} \] 3. **Calculate moles of CaCO₃**: - Molar mass of CaCO₃ = 100 g/mol. \[ \text{Moles of CaCO}_3 = \frac{1 \text{ g}}{100 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.01 \text{ moles} \] 4. **Stoichiometry of the reaction**: - From the reaction, 1 mole of Na₂CO₃ is required for 1 mole of CaCO₃. - Therefore, moles of Na₂CO₃ required = 0.01 moles. 5. **Calculate the mass of Na₂CO₃ required**: - Molar mass of Na₂CO₃ = 106 g/mol. \[ \text{Mass of Na}_2\text{CO}_3 = 0.01 \text{ moles} \times 106 \text{ g/mol} = 1.06 \text{ g} \] ### Conclusion The amount of Na₂CO₃ required to soften 10 liters of water with a hardness of 100 ppm CaCO₃ is **1.06 grams**.
