    If 11.1 mg of \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]and 12 mg of \[\text{MgS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\]are present in 2 L of water, what is its hardness  (in gram\[\text{CaC}{{\text{O}}_{3}}/ppm\]) ?

    A)  5                            

    B)  10

    C)  15                                         

    D)  20

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  40+35.5\times 2 \\  =111\,\times \,{{10}^{3}}\,mg \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CaC{{l}_{2}}}}\,\equiv \underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  40\,+\,12\,+\,48 \\  =\,100\,\,\times \,\,{{10}^{3}}\,mg \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CaC{{O}_{3}}\,}}\,\,\,\,\,\,;\,\,\] \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  24\,+\,32\,+\,64 \\  =120\,\times \,{{10}^{3}}\,mg \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{MgS{{O}_{4}}}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\equiv \,\,\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  40\,\,+\,\,12\,\,+\,\,48 \\  =\,100\,\,\times \,\,{{10}^{3}}\,mg \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{CaC{{O}_{3}}\,}}\,\,\,\,\,\] \[111\times {{10}^{3}}\,\text{mg}\]of \[CaC{{l}_{2}}=100\times {{10}^{3}}\,\text{mg}\,\]of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] \[11.1\,\text{mg}\]of \[CaC{{l}_{2}}=\frac{100\times {{10}^{3}}\times 11.1}{111\times {{10}^{3}}}mg\]of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] \[=10\,mg\]of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] Similarly, \[120\times {{10}^{3}}\text{mg}\]of \[MgS{{O}_{4}}=100\times {{10}^{3}}\,mg\]of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] \[12\,mg\]of \[MgS{{O}_{4}}=\frac{100\times {{10}^{3}}}{120\times {{10}^{3}}}\times 12\,mg\]of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] \[=10\,mg\]of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] In 2 L of water, total weight of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] \[=10+10=20\,mg\]                 \[\therefore \]In 1L of water, total weight of \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\] \[=\frac{20}{2}\,mg\] \[=10\,mg\] \[\therefore \]In \[\text{1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{6}}}\,\text{mg}\]of water, total weight of \[\text{CaC}{{\text{O}}_{3}}=10\,mg\] So, in \[{{10}^{6}}\] part water, hardness of water in terms of \[\text{CaC}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\text{= 10}\,\text{mg}\]
