The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

- Permanent hardness is due to dissolved salts like chlorides and sulfates of Ca and Mg.
- Removal agents like \(\mathrm{Na}_2\mathrm{CO}_3\), \(\mathrm{NaAlSiO}_4\), \(\mathrm{Na}_6(\mathrm{PO}_3)_6\) precipitate hardness causing ions.
- \(\mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4\) does not effectively remove permanent hardness.
