    metal ions with a charge of +2 or higher. The ‘scum’ left over in a cleaned shower stall or coffee pot is equivalent to water hardness. Water dissolves salts which contains ions of sodium‚ magnesium‚ calcium‚ iron‚ and many other metal; however‚ the most prevalent ion found is calcium. Since calcium ions typically make the most predominant contribution to water hardness‚ by convention hardness is reported as mg 〖CaCo〗_3/L of solution. Water with a hardness value less than 60 ppm is considered “soft”

    objects known as “scum”. Calcium ions are typically the most common contributing factor for water hardness so this experiment uses CaCO3 (Calcium Carbonate) to analyze the hardness of an unknown sample. A scale of water hardness identifies “soft” water with a value less than 60 ppm (parts per million) and “hard” water with a value more than 200 ppm. 3 mL of ammonia/ammonium chloride buffer (pH 10) is added to the mixture prior to the titration to capture the calcium metal ions so the indicator

We dealt with this by not including it in the averages or when finding out the energy transfers because it would then provide us with inaccurate results
