2) Acetoacetic acid, CH3COCH2COOH, a reagent used in organic synthesis, decomposes in acidic solution, producing acetone and CO2(g). CH3COCH2COOH(aq) CH3COCH3(aq) + CO2(g) This first-order decomposition has a half-life of 144 minutes. (a) How long will it take for a sample of acetoacetic acid to be 65% decomposed? b) How many liters of CO2(g), measured at 24.5°C and 748 Torr, are produced as a 10.0 g sample of CH3COCH2COOH decomposes for 575 min? [Ignore the aqueous solubility of CO2(g).]
