i. When an acid reacts with metal, a salt and hydrogen are produced:
ii. When oxygen and metal react, metal oxide forms also known as rust
iii. metal and water produce hydrogen gas
Answer: The ion that contribute to water hardness are:
--> a. Ca2+
--> b. (HCO)3^- and
--> c. Mg2+
While K+ DOES NOT contribute to water hardness.
Explanation:
WATER in chemistry is known as a universal solvent. This is so because it is polar in nature and dissolves most inorganic solutes and some polar organic solutes to form aqueous solutions. It is composed of elements such as hydrogen and oxygen in the combined ratio of 2:1.
Water is said to be HARD if it does not lather readily with soap. There are two types of water hardness:
--> Permanent hardness: This is mainly due to the presence of CALCIUM and MAGNESIUM ions in the form of soluble tetraoxosulphate(VI) and chlorides. These ions are removed by adding washing soda or caustic soda.
--> Temporary hardness: This is due to the presence of calcium HYDROGENTRIOXOCARBONATES. It can be removed by boiling and using slaked lime.
Therefore from the above given ions, Ca2+,(HCO)3^- and Mg2+ contributes to water hardness.

The density of the gold is 19.3 grams/cc so each cc weighs 19.3grams. Now we can obtain the volume of gold from the given dimensions ie 4.72x8.21x3.98= 154.23 cc. So for the answer, just multiply the volume or 154.23 x 19.3= 2976.6 grams is the answer.
