HARDENESS

Explanation:

Hardness is defined as the amount of  

Ca or Mg salts present in water. It can be  

In two forms temporary that is caused by

Ca and Mg bicarbonates and permanent hardness

Which is caused by Ca and Mg chlorides and  

Sulphates  

No amount or strength of hardness is determined by the

No of multivalent cations present in the water after  

Getting in react with water . So in this sense Ca  

And Mg both will form same no of ions but Mg salts will cause  

More hardness due to formation of Mg(OH)2 which wont  

Precipitate wheras Ca gets precipitated.
