TOTAL PERMANENT HARDNESS = CALCIUM HARDNESS +
Services MAGNESIUM HARDNESS

Periodic table The calcium and magnesium hardness is the concentration of calcium and
magnesium ions expressed as equivalent of calcium carbonate. The molar
Library mass of CaCO3, Ca2+ and Mg2+ are respectively 100,1 g/mol, 40,1 g/mol
and 24,3 g/mol.
