Explanation:
- Decomposition of calcium acetate and calcium propionate to form butanone and calcium carbonate is formed as a byproduct.
- In this decomposition process, the calcium propionate and the calcium acetate reacts with each other and results in forming the butanone as the main compound and the calcium carbonate is formed as a byproduct which is a white precipitate.
The decomposition reaction of Calcium acetate and the calcium propionate to form the butanone is attached in the attachment below:
