Part A
Sodium fluoride (NaF ), sodium fluorosilicate (Na2SiF6 ), and fluorosilicic acid (H2SiF6 ) are commercially available in 100.0-lb containers. Calculate the mass, in kg , of fluoride ion (F− ) in a 100.0-lb container for each of these three compounds.
Express the masses in kilograms to two significant figures separated by commas.

Part C
A public water treatment plant located in a region with an annual average maximum temperature of 13.0 ∘C uses fluorosilicic acid to treat 60,000 gallons of water per day (6.00×104 gal ).
Calculate the amount of fluoride ions that must be added to the water, in kg , to meet the optimum amount of fluoride.
Express the mass in kilograms to three significant figures.
