Fluoridation is the process of adding fluorine compounds to drinking water to fight tooth decay. a concentration of 1 ppm of fluorine is sufficient for the purpose (1 ppm means one part per million, or 1 g of fluorine per 1 million g of water). the compound normally chosen for fluoridation is sodium fluoride, which is also added to some toothpastes. calculate the quantity of sodium fluoride in kilograms needed per year for a city of 50,000 people if the daily consumption of water per person is 150 gal. what percent of the sodium fluoride is "wasted" if each person uses only 6.0 l of water a day for drinking and cooking (sodium fluoride is 45.0 percent fluorine by mass; 1 gal= 3.79 l; 1 year =365 days; 1 ton =2000 lb; 1 lb =453.6g; density of water =1.0 g/ml)?

Percent ionization for a weak acid (ha) is determined by the following formula: percent ionization=[ha] ionized[ha] initial×100%for strong acids, ionization is nearly complete (100%) at most concentrations. however, for weak acids, the percent ionization changes significantly with concentration. the more diluted the acid is, the greater percent ionization. a certain weak acid, ha, has a ka value of 9.4×10? 7.part acalculate the percent ionization of ha in a 0.10 m solution. part bcalculate the percent ionization of ha in a 0.010 m solution
