YES, it's is the calcium that makes the water "hard". That is why you use a cleaner that has a calcium remover in it to get those hard water stains off.

What element is found in bones and hard water?
Calcium.
What is the chemical in hard water?
Forms of Calcium is what makes hard water hard
Why do soaps not work in hard water?
Hard water contains calcium and magnesium salts. Therefore, in hard water, soaps get precipitated as calcium and magnesium soaps which being insoluble stick to the clothes as gummy mass.
How you can made calcium soap of fatty acids?
Soap scum is calcium soap of fatty acids. It is the result of soap in hard water-- the fatty acids in soap bond with the calcium ions in hard water and create an insoluble compound.
Is hard water a mixture or compound?
Hard water is a mixture: water containing calcium and magnesium carbonates, also some sulfates or chlorides.
What element is found in bones and hard water?
Calcium.
What are the elements found in water?
Hard water contains carbonates and bicarbonates of calcium and Magnesium.
What causes hard water?

What forms hard water?
Hard water contain calcium and magenesium carbonates.
Two elements found in hard water?
Typicall water hardness is caused from calcium and magnesium compounds dissolved in the water. The term "hard water" is used to describe water that has a high mineral content, usually calcium and magnesium in the form of carbonates, but may include several other metals as well as bicarbonates and sulfates, (water with a low mineral content is known as soft water). A high enough concentration of these metals in your water can cause white lime scales on surfaces which the water comes into contact with. Total water 'hardness' is reported as ppm w/v (or mg/L) of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Water hardness usually measures the total concentration of calcium and magnesium, the two most common metal ions, although in some locations around the world iron, aluminium, and manganese may also be present at elevated levels. Calcium usually enters the water as either calcium carbonate (CaCO3), from limestone or chalk, or from mineral deposits of calcium sulfate (CaSO4).
How does hard water differ chemically from soft water?
Hard water has more calcium than soft water does
How do you convert hard water to soft water by boric powder?
Hard water contains bicarbonates of calcium and magnesium or sulphates and chlorides od calcium and magnesium . It can be converted to soft water by boiling or by adding calculated quantity of calcium hydroxide .
What minerals are in hard and soft water?
Hard water contain calcium bicarbonate, magnesium bicarbonate in temporary hard water and calcium/magnesium sulfate in permanent hard water. Soft water contain doesn't contain these substances or only in very limited concentations.
