Answer
acetic +propionic acid.......
Explanation:
Ethyl methyl ketone is an unsymmetric ketone, so two different acids (in the form of cJ1cium salt) are used. The structure of ethyl methyl ketone is C2H5COCH3
The structure shows the presence of four carbon atoms, thus the calcium salts must be of acetic acid and propionic acid to form C2H5COCH3.
(C2H5CHO)2Ca+(CH3COO)2Ca−→−−−DistillC2H5COCH3
