5. Hemoglobin carries O2 from the lungs to tissue cells, where the O2 is released. The protein is represented as Hb in its unoxygenated form and as Hb-O2 in its oxygenated form. One reason CO is toxic is that it competes with O2 in binding to Hb: Hb-O2(aq) + CO(g) Hь-CО (аq) + O-(g) (a) If AG© z -14 kJ/mol at 37°C (body temperature), what is the ratio of [Hb-CO] to [Hb-O2] at 37°C with [O2] = [CO]? (b) How is Le Châtelier's principle used to treat CO poisoning?
