Re: Midterm Q4
I think the reason why is because all of the values are technically already given to you since you can find the [H30+] through the pH, which is given, and the [HCO3] is given in the prompt. Because of this, you have all the numbers you need in order to find [CO2]. So I don't think its that an ICE table is a "wrong" approach, I just think you don't really need one since all the numbers are given in order to set up k = [prod] / [react]

Re: Midterm Q4
ICE Table is not needed for this problem, which is why it was probably not used in the solutions.

Re: Midterm Q4
I believe it's because the information given is enough to calculate the amount (in moles) of CO2 present.
