Acetone is used to stabilize what gas?
Acetone is usually added to cylinders of acetylene to stabilize it.
How acetone is converted into t-butyl alcohol?
WE can convert the acetone in to t-butyl alcohol by the Grignard reagent.....
What state of matter is Acetylene in the cylinder under pressure?
Acetylene is different from most gasses in a tank. An acetylene tank is not hollow- it contains a porous material (think of a hard sponge) that is saturated with liquid acetone. When acetylene is pumped into the tank under pressure, it dissolves in the liquid. This is similar to how carbon dioxide dissolves in a soda (in a bottle or an) under pressure. While in the tank, it is mainly in a liquid.
Is acetylene ionic or covalent?
Acetylene is a covalent compound
The empirical formula for acetylene?
Acetylene is C2H2 so its emperical formula is C1H1.
What gas can be stabilized by acetone?
Acetylene -C2H2
Acetone is used to stabilize what gas?
Acetone is usually added to cylinders of acetylene to stabilize it.
Is it safe to use an acetylene tank that has not been used in about 10 years?
If there is pressure in the tank it may be possible to use it. If not I wouldn't recommend it. In the tank there are blocks of material and Acetone. These absorb the Acetylene allowing it to be charged to 300 PSI. If the Acetone (it is in liquid form) has leaked out the Acetylene could explode if the cylinder is recharged. Acetylene pressure is RED LINED at 35PSI.
What is the material that comes out when a acetylene tank is laid down too long?
That would be acetone.
Is acetylene soluble in water?
Acetylene gas is usually dissolved in acetone, as in this condition it occupies a much smaller volume. [But your acetylene cylinders should be kept vertical.] And acetylene under quite modest pressure is very explosive just by itself.
Why must acetylene cylinders be stored upright?
Because the acetylene is stored dissolved in acetone. You don't want to get any liquid acetone up into the valve area where it can get into the regulator, as it can damage the regulator. If the tank does go on its side, be sure to set it upright and let it be for awhile before putting it in use.
How convert 1kg of acetone to liters?
1 ltr of acetone = 800 gms
How do you convert cubic feet of acetylene to gallons?
Multiply by 7.481
Is a acetone an element or compound?
Acetone is a chemical compound and not just a single substance. It is colorless, has a distictive smell and is flammable.
What are the dissolved gases?
Examples (gases dissolved in liquids): oxygen in water or blood, carbon dioxide in water, acetylene in acetone, etc.
In heavy heating applications acetylene is sometimes considered unsuitable Why?
Acetylene can not be stored inside a cylinder on its own as its properties will not let it be compressed above 103.5 kPa. To solve this problem the cylinder is filled with an absorbent material such as charcoal (asbestos in olden times) and acetone is added. The absorbant material absorbes the acetone and this acetone/solvent stabilizes the gas. I can not explain why but because of this the bottles draw off rate is restricted. LPG can be compressed on its own and because of this even as some of the gas is used enough pressure can be drawn for heating unlike acetylene. Hope this helps
