Consider the reaction fo extraction of gold from its ore
`Au +2CN^(-) (aq)+(1)/(4)O_(2) (g)+(1)/(2)H_(2)O rarr Au(CN)_(2)^(-) +OH^(-)`
Use the following data to calculate `DeltaG^(@)` for the reaction
`K_(f) [Au(CN)_(2)^(-)] = X`
`{:(O_(2)+2H_(2)O +4e^(-)rarr4OH^(-),:,E^(@) =+0.41 "volt"),(Au^(3+)+3e^(-)rarr Au,:,E^(@) = +1.5 "volt"),(Au^(3+)+2e^(-)rarr Au^(+),:,E^(@) =+1.4 "volt"):}`
