    The temporary hardness of water due to calcium bicarbonate can be removed by adding

    A) \[CaC{{O}_{3}}\]                              

    B) \[Ca{{(OH)}_{2}}\]

    C) \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]                                

    D) \[HCl\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     The calcium bicarbonates present in temporary hard water react with lime \[[Ca{{(OH)}_{2}}]\]to form insoluble calcium carbonates which can be easily filtered off. \[Ca{{(HC{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}+Ca{{(OH)}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}2CaC{{O}_{3}}\downarrow \]                                                                 \[+2{{H}_{2}}O\]
