n_{ea}CaCO_{3}=n_{ea}Ca(HCO_{3})_{2}+n_{ea}Mg(HCO_{3})_{2}

\frac{W\times2}{100}=\frac{0.81\times2}{162}+\frac{0.73\times2}{146}

w=1.0

\therefore Hardness=\frac{1.0\times10^{6}}{100}=10,000\; ppm


Option 1)

100 \; ppm

Option 2)

1,000 \; ppm

Option 3)

10,000 \; ppm

 

Option 4)

5,000 \; ppm
