All of the following remove or control hardness EXCEPT

  • A.adding a sequestering agent to the bath
  • B.lime soda softening
  • C.raising the temperature of the bath
  • D.sodium cycle ion exchange

Answer: C

Correct answer: raising the temperature of the bath

Heating makes hardness worse rather than better: temporary hardness precipitates as scale as the bicarbonate decomposes, which is exactly the deposit to be avoided. The other three are genuine remedies - sequestering holds the ions in solution, lime soda precipitates them, and ion exchange removes them onto a resin.
