Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Fluoride ion is commonly used in drinking water supplies and in toothpaste to prevent tooth decay. The fluoride ions replace hydroxide ions in the enamel mineral hydroxyapatite, forming fluoroapatite. Why does replacing the hydroxide ion with fluoride ion prevent tooth decay has to be explained

Concept Introduction:

Dental materials are used for dental implants and dental fillings.  Dental fillings was done by using amalgum or dental composite.  The dental composite has a matrix (made from a methacrylate resin) and a silica filler.  Dental fillings are done by dental amalgum which is a solution of mercury having many metals in it.

Hydroxyapatite is a naturally occurring mineral which can be found in matix with other minerals as well as in teeth.

Geosciences are very versatile. This fact rests on the finding that the number of silicate minerals that make up this planet is huge. a) By means of a reaction sequence based on Lewis structures show the step-by-step formation of a tricyclosilicate starting from silicic acid, Si(OH)4! b) Explain based on your answer from Part a) why this already offers the chance to hundreds of different minerals!
(a) Determine the number of calcium ions in the chemicalformula of the mineral hardystonite, CaxZn(Si2O7). (b)Determine the number of hydroxide ions in the chemicalformula of the mineral pyrophyllite, Al2(Si2O5)2(OH)x.
