the mohs hardness scale
The relative hardness of a mineral can be best tested by conducting a scratch test against common minerals with known hardness values, such as the Mohs Scale of Hardness. By observing which mineral scratches another, you can determine the relative hardness of the unknown mineral.
The Moh's scale is used to test the hardness of a mineral. It will be tested by a fingernail scratching it.
One of the scales is a durometer. The appropriate scale depends on the industry the hardness is being tested for.
Hydrogen does not have a specific Mohs hardness because it is a gas and does not typically form solid minerals that can be tested for hardness using the Mohs scale.
it means the barrel was tone tested for hardness
The water supplier can provide you the details on hardness level if you are on municipal water systems, If you are using private water then you can get tested in laboratories. You can even measure it with water hardness testing kits which you need to purchase.
The hardness of a mineral is tested using the Mohs scale, which ranks minerals from 1 (softest) to 10 (hardest). A common method is to scratch the mineral with a known material of a specific hardness to determine where it falls on the scale.
Minerals are tested for hardness by performing a scratch test. The unknown mineral is scratched with another object that the hardness is known. For example, a unknown mineral may be scratched with a piece of metal to compare the resistance.
The scratch test measures a mineral's hardness, which is its resistance to being scratched. This property is identified by comparing the hardness of a mineral to the hardness of known minerals on the Mohs scale.
You could have it tested at your pools hop. However the odds of the water being too hard are minimal
