The concentration of Ca(HCO3)2 in a sample of hard water is 500 ppm. The density of water sample is 1.0 gm/ml. calculate the molarity of solution.

Dear Student,

The computation are expressed below,

Hardness = 500 ppm = 500 mglt = 0.5 gmltρ = 1.0 gmmlMolar mass of Ca(HCO3)2 = 162.112 gmmolMolality = 0.5 gmlt162.112 gmmol=0.0031 M

Regards.
