Q.
The recommended concentration of fluoride ion in drinking water is up to 1ppm as fluoride ion is
required to make teeth enamel harder by converting [3Ca3(PO4)2.Ca(OH)2] to :
The Fluoride ion converts [3Ca3(PO4)2⋅Ca(OH)2] to [3Ca3(PO4)2⋅CaF2].
The reaction can be given as follow: [3Ca3(PO4)2⋅Ca(OH)2]+2F−→[3Ca3(PO4)2⋅CaF2] drinking water upto 1ppm harder teeth enamel
