It causes too much oxidation, and it doesn't burn hot enough to weld with anyway. You can braze non-ferrous metals with it; some jewelers like it because you can hook up to the natural gas line coming into the building and go for it.

What is the difference between gas welding goggles and arc welding goggles?

If by gas welding you mean-oxyacetylene welding. The difference is just that arc welding requires a darker shade of lens. When oxyfuel gas welding (OFW) usually a shade 5 lens is recommended. When arc welding, a minimum of shade 10 lens should be used (actually shade should be determined by amount of current used).
