Acetone is one of the most important solvents in organicchemistry, used to dissolve from fats and waxes to airplane glueand nail polish. At high temperatures, it decomposes in a firstorder process to methane and ketene (CH2=C=O). at 6.00 degreescelsius, the rate constant is 8.7 x 10^-3 s^-1.
(a) What is the half-life of the reaction?
(b) How long does it take for a 27% of a sample of acetone todecompose?
(c) How long does it take for a 61% of a sample of acetone todecompose?
