In Clark's method, the calculated amount of lime is added to hard water. It precipitates out calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide which can be filtered off.

\mathrm{Ca}\left(\mathrm{HCO}_{3}\right)_{2}+\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_{2} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{CaCO}_{3} \downarrow+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}

Therefore, Option(4) is correct.
