Water containing more than 3.0 gr of dissolved solids per gallon is considered to be hard [1 grain (gr) = 64.8 mg].

A kettle contains 20 gal of tap water, which is allowed to evaporate. The calcium- and magnesium-containing solid material left behind has a mass of 2.1 g.

Part A: What is the minimum mass in grams of dissolved solids in the kettle for the tap water to be considered hard?

Part B: Can the tap water be considered as being hard?
