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. How many liters of CO2(g), measured at 24.5C and 748 Torr, are produced as a 10.0 g sample of CH3COCH2COOH decomposes for 575 min?
