Water is said to be temporarily hard when it contains
-
Ca (HCO3)2 and Mg (HCO3)2 salts
- Ca (HCO3)2 and CaCO3 SALTS
- Mg(HCO3)2 and CaSO4 salts
- CaSO4 and Ca(HCO3)2 salts
The correct answer is: A
Explanation
Temporary hardness is caused by the presence of dissolved calcium hydrogentrioxocarbonate(IV) and magnesium hydrogentrioxocarbonate(IV) which decomposes on heating to form calcium trioxocarbonate(IV) and magnesium trioxocarbonate(IV) respectively.
