Acknowledgement
I take opportunity to express my deep sense
of gratitude to Sri Sanjay Kumar Behera (PGT
chemistry) , JNV, Surangi, Ganjam for his valuable
guidance throughout the work. I am highly thankful
to Sri A. Sundara, Principal of Jawahar Navodaya
Vidyalaya, Surangi, Ganjam for his earnest effort in
providing me with essential library and laboratory
facilities.
I am highly thankful to laboratory
attendant Mr. Chandramani of jnv, Surangi for
helping in my experiments.
Introduction
Required items
Apparatus:
Pipes
Tanks
Tape
Chemicals:
NaOH
HCl
Hard Water
Cation exchange resin
Anion exchange resin
Theory
Hard water:-Water, which does not produce
lather with soap solution is called hard water.
Soft water:- Water, which produce lather with
soap solution is called soft water.
Procedure
In inoraganic ionic exchange method, the hard
water which contain either acidic group (-SO3H or
COOH) or basic group (OH- or NH2-) is poured
through a pipe into first tank containing cation
exchange resin, which can exchange H+ ions with
acidic group. Then the water goes to second tank
Observation
When hard water passes through bed of cation
exchange resin, the cations present in hard water
are exchanged with H+ ions as:Ca2+ +2H+[Resin]
Ca[Resin]2 + 2H+
Mg2+ +2H+[Resin]
Mg[Resin]2 + 2H+
Cl-+OH-[Resin]
SO42-+2OH-[Resin]
Then H+ ions from first tank combines with the OHions from second tank togetherly produce water.
H+ + OH- H2O
Conclusion
This process can convert hard water of river
and sea to soft water, which will be free from all
types of cation and anions. These are more useful
for laboratory purpose which can be used for
drinking.
precaution
For this experiment, freshly prepared dil. HCl,
H2SO4, dil. NaOH will be taken.
Application
1.
This process can obtain pure soft water.
2.
The soft water can be used for better
washing purpose.
3.
Soft water is used for various chemical
reactions to get accurate result.
4.
Soft water is used for daily uses like drinking
and cooking.
5.
It is used in laboratory purposes like mixing
different chemicals preparing different
solutions.
