Yes, but it's only one of the components. One MSDS listed a wide variety of solvents and ketones:Xylene = Dimethylbenzene 42%Methyl = methyl acetate = acetic acid methyl ester = methyl ethanoate 28%Butyl = butyl acetate or butyl ethanoate 17%B-butanone = methyl isobutyl ketone 8%Isobutanol = isobutyl alcohol = methyl propanol = isopropylcarbinol 5%Another company uses a different set:Xylene 52.94%Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) 25.88%Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) 11.18%Isophorone 5%Cyclohexanone 5%The exact mix varies from company to company, which is good because many of these chemicals are difficult to obtain. Nearly any cleanly evaporating paint thinner, thinned with a solvent like xylene, can be made to work.

Screened methyl orange is a pH indicator consisting of a solution of methyl orange and xylene cyanol in ethanol. It is red in very acidic solution, grey in neutral solution, and green in very alkaline solution.
Basic equation for xylene is C8H10.Xylene is di-methyl benzene and comes in three different forms (isomers) :1,2-dimethylbenzene also called orthoxylene sometime shortened to o-xylene1,3-dimethylbenzene also called metaxylene sometimes shortened to m-xyleneand1,4-dimethylbenzene also called paraxylene sometimes shortened to p-xylene
Xylene is an aromatic hydrocarbon that consists of a benzene ring with two methyl substituents. It is nonpolar because there is an equal sharing of electrons between its atoms.
O-xylene is a benzene ring with two methyl groups in the ortho-positions. Methyl groups on a benzene ring act as o,p-directors, which means that they direct electrophiles to the carbon directly across or directly beside the existing methyl group. Friedel-crafts acylation creates the electrophile using a Lewis acid catalyst, however because there are two methyl groups side by side on o-xylene, the electrophilic addition is not as straightforward as described above. The two methyl groups direct the electrophile to different carbons, creating a mixture of products. As a result, there will be two products formed: One product will be a benzene ring with the electrophile and two methyl groups in a 1,2,3 orientation. The second product will be a benzene ring with the electrophile and two methyl groups in a 1,3,4 orientation (respectively). It is my understanding that the second product will be most predominantly formed, because it has the least steric hindrance (it is less crowded).
it might be b euces of what pepole think
Xylene has structural isomers.

Goof Off or Xylene will remove them. After that scrub with carpet shampoo.
The density of xylene is 0.861g/ml. That means if you have a liter, you have 0.861kg or 861g of xylene
