Chapter 15, Problem 49E
About 50% of urinary calculi (kidney stones) consist of calcium phosphate, Ca3(PO4)2. The normal mid-range calcium content excreted in the urine is 0.10 g of Ca2+ per day. The normal mid-range amount of urine passed may be taken as 1.4 L per day. What is the maximum concentration of phosphate of that urine can contain before a calculus begins to form?

1. Copper oxides are a product of the oxidation of copper that often form on the inside of copper pipes transporting water and serves to protect the pipes against corrosion. They are toxic. At a pH above 8, these oxides are virtually insoluble in water. As the pH of the water flowing drops below 7, the solubility of these oxides increases, and the layer begins to dissolve. Based on this knowledge, and the data collected in your lab, what implications does this have on toxic metal pollutants or other pollutants in our drinking supply when the water flowing is acidic? Would this problem become better or worse if the water flowing through the pipes was hot?
2. The chemical obtained from red cabbage that acts as a pH indicator is a pigment called anthocyanin. Based on your results, do you think anthocyanin is a useful indicator? Why or why not?
