Molar Mass -

The mass of one mole of a substance in grams is called its molar mass.

- wherein

 Molar mass of water = 18 g mol-1

 

 

Hardness is most commonly expressed as milligrams of calcium carbonate equivalent per litre. Water containing calcium carbonate at concentrations below 60 mg/l is generally considered as soft; 60–120 mg/l 

as we learn

in equlibrium

initialA+2B\rightleftharpoons 2C+D

         a       1,5a

at eg. a-x1.5\left ( a-2x \right )2_{x}

at eg a-x= 1.5_{a}-2x

0.5_{a}= xa= 2x

K_{c}= \frac{\left ( 2x \right )^{2}\left ( x \right )}{\left ( a-x \right )\left ( 1.5a-2x \right )^{2}}= \frac{4x^{2}x}{\left ( x \right )\left ( x \right )^{2}}= 4

 


Option 1)

10 ppm

Option 2)

90 ppm

Option 3)

100 ppm

Option 4)

50 ppm
