    magnesium and calcium ions in a water sample. This was used because of the fact that these ions combine with soap molecules in water making it ‘hard’ to get sudsy; consequently the soap will not clean effectively. When water containing calcium and bicarbonate ions is heated‚ some carbon dioxide is given off. As a result‚ the solution becomes less acidic and insoluble calcium carbonate is formed: Ca2+ (aq) + 2HCO3- (aq) → CaCO3 (s) + H2O (l) +CO2 (g) Hardness of water is normally expressed as parts
