You have been assigned as the chemical specialist aboard the Federation Starship USS Enterprise. Your duties are to assist the starship personnel with your vast knowledge of chemistry. Please answer any questions they pose to you. The Enterprise is currently orbiting around an uncharted planet, a landing party has been sent down to investigate the ecosystem and life on the planet. 1. Many Vulcans serve on the Starship Enterprise and it is extremely important that they do not come into contact with cyanide ion. A Vulcan's blood is based on cobalt instead of iron. Given the following: Co2 (aq) + 6CNC (aq) + e - Co(CN). ag) E = 1.103 V Determine the AG and the equilibrium constant for the half reaction given above at 25°C. 2. How many unpaired electrons are in the Co(CN).-5 complex ion? 3. Lt. Sulu is in the botany lab and needs to make a buffer for one of his experiments. He uses 0.185 M hypochlorous acid (HCIO) and 0.132 M sodium hypochlorite (NaCIO). If the K, of hypochlorous acid is 3.8 x 108, what is the pH of the buffer he made? +
