a) Acetone is a good solvent due to its ability to dissolve both polar and nonpolar substances, while other solvents can only dissolve one or the other. Pharmaceuticals, scientific testing, sterilizing medical tools, cosmetics, textiles, and gasoline, all require the use of acetone as a cleaner or solvent. At high temperature, acetone decomposes in a first order process to methane and ketene. At 600 °C, the rate constant is 8.7 x 103 s. i) What is the half-life of the reaction? ii) How long does it take for 40% of a sample acetone to decompose?
Carbonic Anhydrase or carbonic dehydratase is a family of metalloenzymes containingzinc (Zn2+) ion in its active site.
