Answer:

Surface water- It is water found in a river, lake or other surface cavities.

Surface water is usually not very high in mineral content.

Surface water is called as soft water due to its less mineral content.

Groundwater is water contained in or by a subsurface layer of soil or rock.

Groundwater commonly contains less contamination than surface water because the rock tends to act as a filter to remove some contaminants.

Due to the minerals picked up while filtering through the rocks, groundwater is typically considered to be hard water.

Answer:

HERE IS THE DIFFERENCE

In general: Groundwater is located underground in large aquifers and must be pumped out of the ground after drilling a deep well. Surface water is found in lakes, rivers and streams and is drawn into the public water supply by an intake.

Surface water is just what the name implies; it is water found in a river, lake or other surface cavity. This water is usually not very high in mineral content, and is often called “soft water” even though it is probably not. Surface water is exposed to many different contaminants, such as animal wastes, pesticides, insecticides, industrial wastes, algae and many other organic materials. 
Even surface water found in what seems like pristine mountain streams can be contaminated by wild animal waste, dead animals upstream or other decay.
