Question:
(A) Teeth are made principally from the mineral hydroxyapatite, Ca5(PO4)3OH, which can be dissolved in acidic solution such as that produced by bacteria in the mouth. The reaction that occurs is Ca5(PO4)3OH(s) + 4 H+(aq) ⇌ 5 Ca2+(aq) + 3 HPO42-(aq) + H2O(l). Write the equilibrium constant expression Kc for this reaction.
(B) The steam–iron process is used to generate H2(g), mostly for use in hydrogenating oils. Iron metal and steam [H2O(g)] react to produce Fe3O4(s) and H2(g). Write an expression for Kp for this reaction.
