The formula Hydroxylapatite is Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂, is it possible to Cu ( Copper ) replace the Ca₁₀? and what is it formula? is it something like this Cu₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ ?

thx for answering

Dont think so, it will be simple copper phosphate hydroxide

thx for answering, im a dentistry student. based on what i read, cu2+ can replace Ca in this HA formula ( Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ ) in human teeth, what is final formula for that? is it Cu₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ ?

Probably only one or two copperions exchange, but I dont think that all calcium will be replaced, because I showed you the copper phosphate hydroxide minerals already. There is not such formulation.

Ca₉Cu(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ or Ca₈Cu₂(PO₄)₆(OH)₂

Otherwise the word Blue tooth will get a new meaning.

whoaaa thx so much, hahaha blue tooth XD
and next question is what if this Ca₈Cu₂(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ meet H+
like Ca₈Cu₂(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ + H+ =

The same what happens before. Decomposition. The copper will be dissolved more easilier because solubilty is better as calcium. Depending of the anion of the acid.

i dont know formula of the acid, but its say the acid from peat swarm water is humic acid and fulvic acid

what if just H+, sorry i cant remember redox reaction from school. can u equilibrium it. thx again

hey i just found out this Ca₈Cu₂(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ + 8 H⁺ = 8 Ca²⁺ + 2 Cu²⁺ + 6 (HPO₄)^2- + 2 H₂O. is this correct ?

Sounds good.

oke thx, u such a good man. can i have your curriculum vitae. i want to add u to my citations. if u can u can PM me

haloo mr chen, i have another problem. based on literature that i have read, the phosphate on HA ( Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆OH₂ ) can be replace 1:1 by selenite SeO₃^2-. and what is it final formula ?


thnks again for answering

2 PO₄ 3- are equal to 3 SeO₃ 2-

( Ca₁₀(SeO₃)₉(OH)₂ )

thx again mr ChenBeier,

halo mr ChenBeier

i was tried to equlizer Ca₁₀(SeO₃)₉OH₂ + 11 H⁺, but it seem to imposible to equalizer it. any solution?

What do you mean with equalize?
