La partie des sels de calcium et de magnésium [qui] existe dans l'eau sous forme de carbonates (-CO32-) ou d'hydrogénocarbonates (-HCO3-), donc sous forme des sels de l'acide carbonique (H2CO3), est appelée dureté carbonatée, qui est également indiquée en degrés de dureté. Ces ions ont une capacité basique. Elle est aussi déterminée comme capacité de fixation en acide (CFA) en mmol/L, dont la valeur est numériquement identique au volume (en ml) d'HCl 0,1 mol/L qui est utilisé lors du titrage de 100 ml d'eau jusqu'à pH 4,3. 2, record 1, French, - capacit%C3%A9%20de%20fixation%20en%20acide
