Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 3

Which of the following statement is wrong regarding permanent hardness?

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 3

Explanation: Permanent hardness is called non-carbonate hardness whereas temporary hardness is called carbonate hardness.

Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 4

One degree of hardness is equivalent to ___ ppm

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 4

Explanation: Water is said to have one degree of hardness when its soap destroying power is equivalent to the effect of 14.25mg of calcium carbonate in one litre of water.

Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 5

What can be filled in place of the question mark in the above table?

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 5

Explanation: When the degree of hardness is 9, then it indicates the hard water. For excessive hard water, it is 15 and for very hard water, it is 11.

Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 6

In which method of determining total hardness of water is based on the premise that hardness producing substance react with soap and form insoluble compounds before lather is produced?

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 6

Explanation: In Clark’s method, total hardness is found by determining the standard soap solution required to obtain permanent lather with the water sample of known volume.

Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 7

What is the indicator used in EDTA method?

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 7

Explanation: Hardness is determined by using Ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid using Erio chrome, black T as indicator at a pH between 8.5 and 11.

Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 8

 The permissible limit of pH preferred for potable water is ___ppm.

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 8

The permissible limit of pH for potable water should not exceed 9 and should not be less than 6.5 and the preferred limit is 7-8.5.

Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 9

Given list 1 and list 2, find which of the following pair is correctly matched?

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 9

Explanation: Lead has a permissible limit of 0.05ppm, phenol has 0.001ppm, zinc has 5ppm and chromium has a permissible limit of 0.05ppm in water.

Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 10

What is the concentration of H+ ions in moles/L in water if the pOH value is 6? 

Detailed Solution for Test: Chemical Characteristics Of Water - Question 10

Explanation: pH + pOH = 14
pOH = 6, so pH = 14-6= 8
H+ = 10-pH = 10-8moles/L.
