Permanent hardness is hardness (mineral content) that cannot be removed by boiling. It is usually caused by the presence in the water of calcium and magnesium sulphates or chlorides which become more soluble as the temperature rises.

What are the two form of hardness found in water?

Hardness in water is usually characterised as temporary or permanent. Both are due to the presence of calcium or magnesium ions. If they are present as the hydrogen carbonate, when the water is boiled this is converted to the carbonate which precipitates out as a solid, leaving water which is no longer hard, so this is called temporary hardness. If they are present as the sulfate the solution is unaffected by boiling, and this is called permanent hardness.


How can temporary hardness of water be removed?

by boiling


Do Calcium bicarbonate salts cause hardness to the water?

Yes. it causes temporary hardness of water, which can be generally removed by boiling water.


What other substances cause permanent hardness?

Temporary hardness of water is due to the presence of calcium hydrogentrioxocarbonate(IV) which decompose on heating.when this water is heated calcium trioxocarbonate(iv) is form as insoluble and this brings the ca+ out of the solution as precipitate.once the ca+ re out of the solution soap can now lather well.

Temporary. It can be removed with soap and water.


What is permanent hardness of water?

Temporary Hardness Temporary hardness is hardness that can be removed by boiling or by the addition of lime (calcium hydroxide). It is caused by a combination of calcium ions and bicarbonate ions in the water. By boiling the water, it promotes the formation of carbonate from the bicarbonate and will precipitate calcium carbonate (the limescale) out of solution, leaving water that is less hard after it has cooled. When it has been heated, less carbon dioxide is able to dissolve into the water. Since there is not enough carbon dioxide around, the reaction cannot take place, and therefore the calcium carbonate will not "dissolve" as readily. Instead, the reaction is forced to re-establish equilibrium, and the solid calcium carbonate is formed. Heating water will remove hardness as long as the limescale that precipitates out is removed. After cooling, if enough time passes the water will pick up carbon dioxide from the air and the reaction will again proceed, allowing the calcium carbonate to "redissolve" in the water. Permanent Hardness Permanent hardness is hardness (mineral content) that cannot be removed by boiling. When this is the case, it is usually caused by the presence of calcium and magnesium sulphates and/or chlorides in the water, which become more soluble as the temperature rises. Despite the name, the hardness of the water can be easily removed using a water softener, or ion exchange column.


What distinguishes a permanent magnet from a temporary magnet?

Permanent magnets do not lose their magnetic ability. Temporary magnets, however, gain magnetic properties when they are touched or moved by a permanent magnet. The properties of a temporary magnet dissipates over time after the permanent magnet is removed.

Difference between temporary and permanent fasteners?

My assumption in the word use for temporary and permanent fasteners are regarding an office product you used for filing and organizing folders. Temporary would mean the fastener that can be easily removed from the manila folder and the permanent one is already glued right on to the folder. It cannot be removed unless pulled apart which will tear the folder.


What is the definition of dm water?

Demineralised water. DM water is demineralised water . Dissolved impurities and dissolved gases in water. Some times water is hard, temperary hardness or permanent hardness and which is badly affects the boiler which helps formation of scales in sides the boiler. In the process of purification of water Coagulation, sedimentation, filteration are the first stages. After filteration water allowed to enter into Activated carbon filter for absorbing dissolved carbondioxide. For removing temporary hardness and permanent hardness ion exchanging process used. By Ion - exchange process from which the minerals have been removed and get Demineralized water.
