Best Answer

water that has run over chalk and still has these types of particles in. When mixed with soap solution forms a scum. However, soft water when mixed with soap solution forms a precipitate.

------

Water containing some soluble hydrocarbonates of calcium and magnesium as Ca(HCO3)2 and Mg(HCO3)2 - temporary hard water

or

Water containing another salts of calcium and magnesium (as chlorides, sulfates, nitates) - permanent hard water

Total hardness is the sum of temporary and permanent.
