Bone mineral is predominantly calcium phosphate in the form of hydroxyapatite (Ca10[PO4]6[OH]2).\nThe most common ion substitutions in the Hydroxyapatite crystal are Fluoride, chloride or carbonate.

1, 1, 2, HNO3, 1, PbSO4.\n\nTechnically, the HNO3 is aqueous and stays in ion form, but it doesn't seem like you're looking for a net ionic.

your bones release calcium into your blood to maintain specific blood calcium levels...not so sure about the second mineral...

In human enamel trace elements of Fe, Zn, Sr, Cu, Mn and Ag are found. The concentration of some of these elements varies with distance from the surface of the tooth. For example, Fe and Zn (and also Pb and Sn which are present in lower concentration in enamel) accumulate near the surface of the tooth, ie in the outer layers of enamel. \n\nIn human dentine the trace elements of Fe, Zn, and Sr are found\n\nCollagen\nThe predominant organic component of teeth is collagen, an insoluble protein present in the dentine and basal plate of the mature tooth. Also the most abundant protein of vertebrates, collagen has evolved to perform a very specialised structural role. \n\nThe amino acid sequence of collagen, which comprises some 20 different amino acids, is highly repetitious. Thus, very characteristic is the repeating tripeptide sequence: Gly-X-Y, where X and Y can be any amino acid, though X is often Pro and Y often Hyp. Of the collagen residues almost 30% are glycine and a further 15-30% are proline and hydroxyproline. The primary structure adopts a left-handed helical secondary structure. \n\nThree parallel helical polypeptide chains wind around one another forming a triple helix, with every third residue of the individual polypeptide chains passing through the centre of the triple helix. Only a Gly residue is small enough to fit in this position and so explains the requirement of Gly as every third residue along each polypeptide chain. The special quaternary structure of the triple helix is of the form of a right-handed supercoil, the Gly residues on the neighbouring polypeptide chains tracing out this right-handed path. \n\nThe collagen supercoils (right-handed triple helices) align in a parallel, though staggered, arrangement. This array is called a microfibril, with several microfibrils compiling a collagen fibre. The gaps in the staggered arrangement may provide nucleation sites for apatite mineralisation (Voet and Voet 1990) This is not observed for Elasmobranch teeth where fluorapatite crystals are not formed within collagen fibres but outside. This may be a result of the larger crystallite size of fluorapatite compared to hydroxyapatite in mammalian teeth. \n\nThe structural proteins and apatite of teeth need to be synthesized in an integrated way. Comparing the structure of natural helicoids such as collagen to twisted nematic liquid crystals, it has been suggested that the orientation of the structural protein in synthesis, is governed by self-assembly, thus likening the synthesis of helicoids to that of twisted nematic liquid crystals. It is also suggested that adsorption of organic matrix onto enameloid crystals may influence the kinetics of crystal growth. \n\nThe polypeptide chains of collagen are more extended than the more common a-helices of proteins. Collagen helix: pitch of 10.0A, 3.3 residues per turn; a-helix: pitch of 5.4A, 3.6 residues per turn. There is strong hydrogen bonding between the N-H of each Gly residue on a chain and the carbonyl oxygen of an X-residue on a neighbouring chain within a triple helix. Cross-links between chains of separate collagen supercoils also occur and are thought to be the result of hydroxylysine residues made into cross-links with Lys and His residues by the action of metallo-enzymes, and hydroxyproline residue cross-links, probably involving bridging water molecules. Collagen has great tensile strength with structural properties in close analogy to those of rope. A longitudinal force imposed along the collagen triple-helix is resisted laterally across the helix. This is possible because the constituent polypeptide chains (left-handed helical) run in the opposite direction to the supercoil (right-handed helical). The individual polypeptide chains are thereby prevented from uncoiling under stress. (The rope analogy) \n\nThe organisation of collagen fibrils has been developed by evolution for highly specific roles in different tissues. In teeth the collagen fibrils are suited

damn! i should know this...i'm a science chem/bio student\n\ngimme some time...they are basic and acidic in nature. so in solution, there's the [H] ions for reaction in/around cells

h3o+ is for hydronium ion, an acid.

yes, according to my anatomy teacher, the osteocytes have the same elements as any regular cell. nucleus, ribosomes, etc.

In chemistry, a metal (Greek: Metallon) is an element that readily forms ions (cations) and has metallic bonds. Metals are sometimes described as a lattice of positive ions (cations) surrounded by a cloud of delocalized electrons. The metals are one of the three groups of elements as distinguished by their ionisation and bonding properties, along with the metalloids and nonmetals. On the periodic table, a diagonal line drawn from boron (B) to polonium (Po) separates the metals from the nonmetals. Elements on this line are metalloids, sometimes called semi-metals; elements to the lower left are metals; elements to the upper right are nonmetals.

calcium is easily dissolved by acid even weak ones. calcium carbonate in the bones will form compounds such as calcium chloride if reacted with hydrogen chloride or calcium sulphate if reacted with sulfuric acid producing carbon dioxide as a side product in the reaction. Simply put it dissolves away.

I'll make it easy for you.All the metals forms positive ions by losing electrons and all non-metals form negative ions by gaining electrons.\nExample:- NaCl  Na+ & Cl-

Bone is a relatively hard and lightweight composite material, formed mostly of calcium phosphate in the chemical arrangement termed calcium hydroxyapatite. It has relatively high compressive strength but poor tensile strength. While bone is essentially brittle, it does have a degree of significant elasticity contributed by its organic components (chiefly collagen). Bone has an internal mesh-like structure, the density of which may vary at different points.

Calcium phosphate: 13 atoms (3 Ca, 2 P, 8 O)\n4 Aluminum Carbonate molecules: 56 atoms: (36 O, 12 C, 8 Al)\nLead Nitrate: 9 atoms (1 Pb, 2 N, 6 O)\nThe Or threw me off on on this one.  I'm assuming it's Cr.  If it is it would be-\n2 Ammonium Dichromate molecules: 38 atom (4 N, 16 H, 4 Cr, 14 O).\nIf you are adding all the atoms for all the molecules together you get 116 atoms.
