Chapter 3, Problem 80E
Tooth enamel is composed of hydroxyapatite, whose simplest formula is Ca5 (PO4)3OH, and whose corresponding Kap = 6.8 × 10-27. As discussed in the chemistry and Life box on page 746, fluoride in fluorinated water or in toothpaste reacts with hydroxyapatite to form fluoroapatite, Ca5 (PO4)3F, whose Kap =1.0 × 10-60.
- Write the expression for the solubility-constant for hydroxyapatite and for fluoroapatite.
- Calculate the molar solubility of each of these compounds.

Tooth enamel consists of hydroxyapatite, Ca5(PO4)3OH (Ksp = 8 × 10−37). Fluoride ion added to toothpaste and also drinking water reacts with Ca5(PO4)3OH to form the more tooth decay–resistant fluorapatite, Ca5(PO4)3F (Ksp = 1.0 × 10−60). Fluoridated water has dramatically decreased cavities among children. Calculate the solubility of Ca5(PO4)3OH and of Ca 5(PO4)3F in water.
