Hydroxyapatite (IMA name: hydroxylapatite [5]) (Hap, HAp, or HA) is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca 5 (PO 4) 3 (OH), often written Ca 10 (PO 4) 6 (OH) 2 to denote that the crystal unit cell comprises two entities. [6] It is the hydroxyl endmember of the complex apatite group.
Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) is a glassy solid that is formed from the chemical decomposition of a mixture of dissolved phosphate and calcium salts (e.g. (NH 4) 2 HPO 4 + Ca(NO 3) 2). The resulting amorphous mixture consists mostly of calcium and phosphate, but also contains varying amounts of water and hydrogen and hydroxide ions ...
Ca 2+ + 2 HCO − 3 ⇌ Ca 2+ + CO 2− 3 + CO 2 + H 2 O. Note that CO 2 is dissolved in the water. Carbon dioxide dissolved in water (aq) tends to equilibrate with carbon dioxide in the gaseous state (g): CO 2 (aq) ⇌ CO 2 (g) The equilibrium of CO 2 moves to the right, toward gaseous CO 2, when water temperature rises or
Chemists remove gases from solvents when the compounds they are working on are possibly air- or oxygen-sensitive (air-free technique), or when bubble formation at solid-liquid interfaces becomes a problem. The formation of gas bubbles when a liquid is frozen can also be undesirable, necessitating degassing beforehand.
In the United States, typical natural gas water heaters for households without unusual needs are 150–190 L (40–50 US gal) with a burner rated at 10.0–11.7 kilowatts (34,000–40,000 BTU/h). This is a popular arrangement where higher flow rates are required for limited periods.
Quicklime has a high affinity for water and is a more efficient desiccant than silica gel. The reaction of quicklime with water is associated with an increase in volume by a factor of at least 2.5. [10] Hydroxyapatite's free CaO content rises with increased calcination temperatures and longer times.
In another study, published in 2019 in Clinical Nutrition ESPEN, overweight people with type 2 diabetes who consumed two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water twice daily showed ...
Fluorapatite (or fluoroapatite) is more resistant to acid attack than is hydroxyapatite; in the mid-20th century, it was discovered that communities whose water supply naturally contained fluorine had lower rates of dental caries. [14] Fluoridated water allows exchange in the teeth of fluoride ions for hydroxyl groups in apatite.
