Is is possible to produce an organic acid from a ketone? and Why or why not?

if you mean carboxilic acid, then sure :)

 

there are lotsa ways to do it. Do you need to know particulare methods?

what particular keytone?

 

but for arguments sake, lets use Propanone CH3COCH3

 

from here you may make a carboxylic acid (as VM said) Propanoic Acid CH3CH2CO2H.

carboxylic Acid is that another name for ketone or is it just another name for Propanoic Acid. Tell, do you know all thsi chemicals and what there electronic configurations look like?
