Impurties of water :-
• Physical Impurities :
Human wastes,industrial
wastes,clay,slit(Jackson’s turbitimeter)
JTU= 1mgSio2/l of water(Jackson’s turbidity unit)
• Chemical Impurities :
chemical salts, Mineral acids, organic acids/
salts,oxides of nitrogen,sulphur and carbon.
• Biological impurities:
Algae,fungi,bacteria and parasites.

What are the various units and parameter of hardness of water? Give
the relation between the various units?
5
RELATION BETWEEN FOUR UNITS OF
HARDNESS
• 1ppm = 1mg/l = 0.1 Fr = 0.07 Cl
a) Convert 2.42 Cl to ppm
• As 0.07Cl = 1ppm
• So 2.42 Cl = = 34.5 ppm
b) Convert 3.6 Fr to ppm
• As 0.1 Fr = 1ppm
• So 3.6 Fr =
c) Convert 206 ppm = Fr =Cl
• As 1ppm = 0.1 Fr =0.07 Cl
• So 206 ppm = 20.6 Fr = 14.42 Cl
6
The parameter to measure hardness of water is known as
Multiplication Factor (MF).

. Hardness & Type of Hardness
• 1.Hardness of Water
• Soap consuming capacity of the water is known as
hardness of water.
• Hardness in water is that property , “which prevents the
lathering of soap”.
• Examples of hardness:-
• CaCO3 Ca(HCO3)2 Ca( NO3)2 CaCl2
CaSO4 MgCO3 Mg(HCO3)2 Mg ( NO3)2 MgCl2
MgSO4
11
2. type of hardness
• There are two types of hardness:-
• Temporary hardness
• Permanent hardness
• 1.Temporary hardness
• 1. It is due to presence of dissolve of carbonate and bicarbonate of calcium
, magnesium and other heavy metals.
• 2. It is also called as primary hardness.
• 3. It is also known as carbonate, bicarbonate and alkaline hardness.
• 4. It can be removed by boiling the water.
• Examples of temporary hardness:-
• CaCO3 2. MgCO3 3. Mg(HCO3)2 4.Ca(HCO3)2
12
Boiling test:-
• BOIL, 100oC
• Ca(HCO3)2 ----------------- CO2(gas) + CaCO3 (ppt)+ H2O
(pH=7)
• BOIL, 100oC
• THEORITICAL :- Mg(HCO3)2 ----------------- CO2(gas) +
MgCO3 (ppt)+ H2O (pH=7)
• BOIL, 100oC
• PRACTICAL :- Mg(HCO3)2 ----------------- 2 CO2(gas) +
Mg(OH)2 (ppt)(pH=7.05)
13
2. Permanent hardness:-
It is due to presence of dissolve of chlorides and sulphides
of calcium, magnesium, aluminium and iron.
• It is also called as secondary hardness.
• Permanent hardness is also known as non-carbonate or
non-alkaline hardness.
• Examples of secondary hardness:-
• CaCl2, 2. CaSO4, 3. MgCl2, 4. MgSO4 , 5.FeSO4, 6.
Al2(SO4)3
• 3. Hardness removing method
• 1.Soap solution method.
• 2.EDTA method.
• 14
4.Soap Solution Method:-
• A sample of hard water , when treated with soap does not
produce lather , but on other hand , forms insoluble white scum
or precipitate , which does not possess any detergent action. It is
due to formation of insoluble soaps of calcium and magnesium.

General calculation:
Suppose 50ml of SHW (x ml/y mg of Equivalent) is titrated with V1ml of Na2-EDTA. Again 50ml of TWS is
titrated with V2ml of Na2-EDTA. On boiling 50ml of boiled hard water (BHW) is titrated with V3 ml of Na-
EDTA, in the presence of Buffer Solution and EBT indicator. Calculate total hardness, permanent hardness
and temporary hardness in the given water sample?
25
Suppose 50ml of SHW (500 mg CaCO3 eq./500ml ) is titrated with 48 ml of Na2-EDTA. Again 50ml of TWS is titrated with
15 ml of Na2-EDTA. On boiling 50ml of boiled hard water (BHW) is titrated with 10 ml. of Na2-EDTA, in the presence of
Buffer Solution and EBT indicator. Calculate total hardness, permanent hardness and temporary hardness in the given
water sample
• 50ml of SHW=48 ml. of Na2 EDTA
• 50ml of TWS=15 ml. of Na2 EDTA
• 50ml of BHW=10 ml. of Na2 EDTA
