The metal salts formed during softening of hardwater using Clark's method are

Options

  1. ACa(OH)2Ca{\left(OH\right)}_{2} and Mg(OH)2Mg{\left(OH\right)}_{2}
  2. B{CaCO}_{3}andandMg{\left(OH\right)}_{2}
  3. CCa{\left(OH\right)}_{2} and MgCO3{MgCO}_{3}
  4. DCaCO3{CaCO}_{3} and MgCO3{MgCO}_{3}

Correct answer

B. {CaCO}_{3}andandMg{\left(OH\right)}_{2}

Step-by-step solution

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

Clark's Method Reaction

Ca(HCO3)2+Ca(OH)2→2CaCO3+2H2OCa{\left({HCO}_{3}\right)}_{2} + Ca{\left(OH\right)}_{2} \to 2{CaCO}_{3} + 2{H}_{2}O

Mg(HCO3)2+2Ca(OH)2→2CaCO3+Mg(OH)2+2H2OMg{\left({HCO}_{3}\right)}_{2} + 2Ca{\left(OH\right)}_{2} \to 2{CaCO}_{3} + Mg{\left(OH\right)}_{2} + 2{H}_{2}O
