Can milk give you kidney stones?
common sense says that more ll be the consumption more ll be stones but it is really illogical it has long held that consumption of too much calcium could promote the development of calcium kidney stones. However, current evidence suggests that the consumption of low-calcium diets is actually associated with a higher overall risk for the development of kidney stones This is perhaps related to the role of calcium in binding ingested oxalate in the gastrointestinal tract. As the amount of calcium intake decreases, the amount of oxalate available for absorption into the bloodstream increases; this oxalate is then excreted in greater amounts into the urine by the kidneys. In the urine, oxalate is a very strong promoter of calcium oxalate precipitation, about 15 times stronger than calcium.by Dr. Ankur Sharma
Is calcium oxalate soluble in water?
No, calcium oxalate is not soluble. This is what results in what are called gall stones, or kidney stones.
Would you prepare calcium oxalate precipitate in a acidic or basic solution?

Chemical Formula For Calcium Oxalate?
The chemical formula for Calcium Oxalate is CaC2O4
Does calcium in milk combine with oxalates in tea to form calcium oxalate?
no
What is the excretory organ for calcium oxalate?
The Kidneys.
What is the name of the compound CaC204?
Calcium oxalate
What are disadvantages of calcium?
Calcium has not disadvantages; but for humans concentration of calcium oxalate near the articulations is dangerous.
What can be the viva questions on oxalate ions?
Oxalates are salts of oxalic acid containing oxalate ion. Oxalate ion is a dianion. Upon protonation, oxalate ion forms a commonly known compound, oxalic acid. The commonly known oxalate salts are sodium oxalate, potassium oxalate etc. The calcium metal ion reacts with oxalate ion to form an insoluble precipitate of calcium oxalate, which is the primary constituent of most of the common kind of Kidney stones.
Why is sodium oxalate added in fresh blood?
- sodium oxalate is an anti-clotting agent for blood - sodium oxalate can remove calcium ions from blood
