ICE Tables

[Emilie Otterson 1C]

When constructing ICE tables for chemical equations containing gases, liquids, solids, and aqueous solutions
are solids, liquids, and aqueous solutions included in the table, or are only the gases included?

[Alyssa Gutierrez 3A]

Hi! You do not include solid or liquid solutions in ICE tables, only gases and aqueous solutions. Hope this helps!

[Mia Hansen 2I]

Yes, as stated above, you do not include the concentrations of solids or liquids (the solvent) in your ICE Table calculations.

[VeronicaShepherd3B]

Do we know why liquid and solids are not included on the ICE tables?

Only gaseous and aqueous solutions are included in the table. Solids are not included in the table because there is no such thing as a concentration of a solid and it is assumed that liquids are present in such excess that they do not affect the reaction.

[Chris Korban 1D]

you include gases and acqueous solutions within the table because they affect the K value so in that case solids and liquids are excluded from this calculation

[Windell Viste 1K]

yass like everyone said, you only include aqueous solutions and gases :P

[Erin Chin 1L]

Only gases and aqueous solutions should be included in ICE tables, not solids or liquids because they don't change significantly during the reaction and thus should be excluded.

[Arya Bhalla 1H]

You only include aq and g because they have actual concentrations. Solids do not have concentrations, and in the case of water, its concentration changes by a negligible amount, so you do not include it in the ICE table either

[Joellen 1B]

I would not include liquids and solids because you don't use them in the equation anyway.

[505706331]

everything but liquid and solids are included with the calculations of an ICE table

[Brandon Padilla 2L]

Only the gases and aqueous solutions are included because only they are capable of changing significantly during a reaction.

[Samantha Loc 1B]

Hi there! Only aqueous solutions and gasses should be included! :)

[905565862]

Only aqueous solutions and gases should be included because you cannot take the concentration of a solid and since we assume that there is an excess of liquids we do not include them either!

[Acharya Ranawat 3E]

Ice tables only include molecules that are gaseous and aqueous. Hope this helps!

[205705413]

You do not include solids and liquids in ICE tables.

[Eric Sun 2G]

Liquids and solids should not be included in the ICE tables, only gases and aqueous solutions should be included.

[Emaad Sohail 3F]

You only include gaseous and aqueous substances, because solids are not dissociated and thus have no concentration and liquids are present in such excess that the amount they change in a reaction is negligible.

[Vanessa_Ong_3F]

You do not include solids or liquids in ICE tables. You should only include gases and aqueous solutions.

[Dillon Taing 3H]

Solids and liquids are not included in the equilibrium constant expression or ICE tables as a solid doesn't have a concentration when placed in a solvent and a liquid changes minutely relative to its initial amount. Gases and aqueous solutions, however, will be recorded in an ICE table as their initial concentration can change significantly when a reaction takes place.

[Ashley Hiti 1K]

You base your ICE table off the chemical equation so if you do not use liquids or solids when writing that out, I do not believe they would be used in the ICE table.

[Adithi Ayyala 2G]

Hello! So basically, due to the fact that ICE stands for Inital, Change, and Equilibrium, these charts are used to measure a change in concentration, pressure, etc. For that reason, as solids do not change concentration, and solvents (liquids) do not affect this change in a system, solids and liquids are excluded, whereas gases and aqueous solutions are in an ICE table.

[Akshat Katoch 2K]

You only use aqueous and gases in Ice tables. Solids can not have a change in concentration and liquids basically have no change in their concentration so we don't even include them.

[raynebunado]

You would only include gases and aqueous elements

[Abby 2B]

HI, we only included gases and aqueous solutions in the ICE tables!

[Daniel Tabibian 3K]

Only gases and aqueous solutions would be used in an icee table since solids and liquids are not calculated when finding equilibriium.

[Mia Orr 3B]

When making an ICE table, you only include gases and aqueous solutions. Hope this helps!!

[tashyavakil 2K]

only gases and aqueous

[105778693]

You could include only gases and aqueous solutions. No liquids or solids.

[Mara Crooks 1F]

Only gas and aqueous, not liquids or solids, they are omitted.

[Skylar Lo 2C]

You would only include gases and aqueous substances in your calculations.

[Anubhav_Chandla1G]

When using the ICE table, you only include aqueous phase and gas phase substances, and omit liquid and solid phase substances.

[Hailey Sarmiento 3E]

For ICE tables only the partial pressure of gases or concentrations of liquids or gases are included. The amount of solids and solvents do not change significantly to be included in equilibrium constants

[N Kanuri 2E]

When using ICE tables, you should consider only gases and aqueous solutions!

[Carlie_Dorostkar_1A]

You should not add liquids or solids because they are not included when calculating the chemical equilibrium.

[Alex Luong 3H]

You wouldn't add solids and liquids in the ICE box because they aren't used when calculated the equilibrium constant.

[Kayla Ziebell 1H]

In ICE tables, you only include gases and aqueous solutions!

[Michael 1G]

Solids and liquids don't have concentrations or partial pressures so they are not included. However, gasses have partial pressures and aqueous solutions have concentrations so they are included in ICE tables.

[Shannon Clark 1F]

Hello!
Gases and aqueous compounds are the only that are taken into account in the ICE tables because only gases and aqueous compounds can affect K. Gases have partial pressure and aqueous solutions have concentrations. Solids and liquids do not have changes in partial pressures nor concentrations to be measured so they don't affect K and don't go in the ICE table. Hope this helps!

[Darren Apostol 2L]

Solids don't have a "concentration," and the concentrations of liquids barely change, so they are excluded from the equilibrium expression.

[Nithya Narapa Reddy]

For ICE tables I believe we should only include gas and aqueous solutions.

[405825570]

Only include gases and aqueous

[Polo Morales 3C]

Only gases and aqueous solutions should be included in an ICE table. Solids do not have concentrations. Liquids are in such excess that their "concentrations" do not change significantly. Hope this helps!

[Abigail Tran 14a]

Yes gases are included but aqueous solutions are included as well.

[elletruchan2I]

Hi Emilie!
Gases and aqueous solutions are included in the ICE table, but not liquids or solids. It's basically just whatever you would include in the Ka/Kb/K equation.

[Divya Mehta 2K]

only gases and aqueous solution are used. Solids & liquids do not change concentration much.

[Collin Le 3I]

Only gases and aqueous solutions are included. This is because the concentration change of liquids and solids is negligible.

[Alexander Moroz 1B]

Liquids are often solvents so their concentration is so large that a change in equilibrium ICE table will be negligible. Solids also do not participate in equilibrium.
