** [[Recap/StarTrekS1E18Arena "Arena"]]: How the hell does Spock know that it's potassium nitrate on the rocks, and not sugar, or cocaine? Is Vulcan vision equipped with a mass spectrometer? It could simply be Spock making an educated guess based on logic. Kirk is collecting the mineral, and the Metrons have said that there are materials on the planet's surface which can be used to fashion weapons, therefore the mineral must serve a role in this. A weapon uses an energy source, something to contain the reaction and possibly a projectile. The only one of those that the powder could be used for -- unless the Metrons expect Kirk to find the time and resources for primitive industrial processes -- is an energy source. That narrows it down to a weapon which uses chemical reactions for energy and can be used against the Gorn, and the powder to one of the reactants used. It's not too long of a shot to say that the weapon is a rudimentary cannon and from there Spock can simply narrow the powder down to whichever reactant fits the appearance.
** [[Recap/StarTrekS2E2WhoMournsForAdonais "Who Mourns for Adonais?"]]: Kirk leads a landing party down to the nearby planet, where the alien reveals that he is Apollo. Later in the episode, Spock, who had been on the Enterprise the whole time, makes reference to Apollo. There is no way Spock could have known who the alien was as Apollo immediately jammed the landing party's communicators: at best, he might've picked up on Apollo mentioning that he doesn't want Spock present because his pointy ears remind him of Pan and he's never liked Pan and thus Spock might've known he's related to Greek mythology, and while he did see his face on the main screen and could've made an educated guess based on his appearance on which such character he would likely be, it's still a stretch.
