Typical "hard" water contains about 2.0 x 10–3 mol of Ca2+ per liter. Calculate the maximum concentration of fluoride ion that could be present in hard water. Assume fluoride is the only anion present that will precipitate calcium ion.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the described situation, we infer that calcium reacts with fluoride ions to yield insoluble calcium fluoride as shown below:

Which is typically an equilibrium reaction, since calcium fluoride is able to come back to the ions. In such a way, since the maximum amount is computed via stoichiometry, we can see a 1:2 mole ratio between the ions, therefore, the required maximum amount of fluoride ions in the "hard" water (assuming no other ions) turns out:

Best regards.

answer; /// the amount of material dissolved in a measure of liquid(concentration) the above statement is (true); /// good luck

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.
