Hard water:Hard water is a type of water that has high mineral content (in contrast with soft water).
Its physical and chemical properties are somewhat similar to those of water, H2O.
Heavy watermay contain as much as 100% D2O, and usually the term refers towater which is highly enriched in deuterium.
Hard water is water that contains an appreciable quantity of dissolved minerals (like calcium and magnesium).
Soft water is treated water in which the only ion is sodium. As rainwater falls, it is naturally soft.
On the other hand, soft water tastes salty and is sometimes not suitable for drinking.

**soft water contains high concentration of sodium salts.
**hard water contains high concentration of calcium and magnesium salts
**heavy water is also known as deuterium oxide, as it contains hydrogen isotope deuterium.
thank you!!
