For acid-base equilibria problems, how do I know when I have to use an ICE chart, or when I can use the henderson-hasselbach equation?

If it's a buffer solution, use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation; if you're given just the acid or it's conjugate, you use the ICE chart.
 
I want to test a humidity sensor with one or more saturated salt solutions. The table salt that I have on hand contains one of two anticaking agents, calcium silicate or sodium aluminosilicate. Will the presence of either of these additives (or iodine for that matter) significantly affect the equilibrium humidity? I searched and all the how-to-do-it guides did not address this question. One research paper I found reported that at 1.5% w/w calcium silicate increased the deliquescent point by...
