In normal usage in an oxy/acetylene cutting torch, the acetylene hose is red and the oxygen hose is green.
Acetylene hoses are typically color-coded with a red cover to indicate that they are specifically designed for use with acetylene gas. The red color helps to prevent mix-ups with other gas hoses and ensures proper safety precautions are followed.
red
Red for the combustible gas (Acetylene - MAPP - Propane), green for the Oxygen. All Oxy-fuel torches use these hose colors.
As far as I am aware. The gauges themselves are the same. Usually brass. Unless someone has painted them. The hoses on the other hand are red and green. The red being for the acetylene. A lot of times the tanks will be painted the same way although I have seen some acetylene tanks painted black.
Oxygen and acetylene hose fittings are made with different screws to prevent connecting the wrong gas to the hoses.
Oxygen tank, Acetylene tank, regulators for each tank, hoses, a torch, and a striker. Check valves are also a good idea if they're not already installed.
Red.
They aren't, which is why you should never have them laying near your work area. What I do is drape them over my shoulder and keep them behind me.
no
When acetylene is bubbled through bromine water, the unsaturated acetylene undergoes a reaction with bromine (a halogen) to form a dihalogenated compound, bromoethylene. This reaction is an addition reaction where two bromine atoms add across the carbon-carbon triple bond in acetylene to form the product. The bromine water, which is originally orange-brown in color, will decolorize as the reaction proceeds.
Acetylene is a neutral compound.
Acetylene has a linear molecule.
