This is something of a trick question... Every metal has its own melting point that must be reached to weld the material. The difference between Oxy-ace and Mig is the Heat Effected Zone. This is the blue and purple area around your weld in which the Microstructure and properties of your base material change. Oxy-Ace will have a much wider HAZ.

When discovered welding?
Arc and oxy acetylene welding were both discovered around 1900. Plus or minus 5 years or so, but it's kind of fuzzy...
What kind of welding machine do you use to weld your muffler?
I would use a wire feed MIG, or a oxy-fuel torch. If arc welding, use a low power. It's really easy to burn through exhaust pipes and mufflers.
Name of the type of welding?
There are several types of welding, each suited to different materials, applications, and project requirements. The most common types include: MIG Welding (Metal Inert Gas): Uses a continuous wire feed and shielding gas to create a strong bond, ideal for thin to medium thickness metals. TIG Welding (Tungsten Inert Gas): Involves using a non-consumable tungsten electrode and is known for its precision and ability to weld thin materials. Stick Welding (Shielded Metal Arc Welding): Utilizes a consumable electrode and is highly versatile, suitable for outdoor and heavy-duty applications. Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW): Similar to MIG but with a flux-filled wire, making it ideal for welding thicker materials. Submerged Arc Welding (SAW): Uses a continuously fed electrode and flux to create high-quality welds in thick materials. Gas Welding (Oxy-Acetylene): Combines oxygen and acetylene to create a flame for welding and cutting metals. For quality work, you can search for "welding and fabrication near me" to find local experts offering reliable welding services for your specific needs.

When and why you use oxy acetylene instead of arc welding?
Primarily when brazing cast iron. Nickel rods are available to arc weld cast iron but in most cases it has to be preheated and it takes experience to prevent cracking. Using oxy-acet provides a means to preheat, maintain the temperature, and braze. Welding, brazing, and silver soldering with oxy-acet have become lost arts. Most common metals can be welded with this process including steel and aluminum.
Which electrode is used to weld stainless steel to carbon steel?
It depends on the type of stainless steel. Stainless steels come in various compositions and are identified by numbers and letters. Electrodes should be chosen that match these. For example when welding 316 stainless use type 316 electrodes. In a lot of situations you can safely use the next higher number. 304 stainless can be welded with 308 electrodes, 308 stainless with 310 electrodes. 309 electrodes are generally used to weld stainless to carbon steel.
Which came first MIG TIG or oxy accedoline welding?
Oxy-acetylene (notice the spelling) came first.
What are two gases used in oxy-acetylene welding?
You answered your own question. Oxygen and Acetylene. Other mixes are now used in place of Acetylene so the process is now called Oxy-Fuel.
Purpose of oxy-acetylene welding?
You have oxygen and acetylene to blend into the tip for a flame. It will be regulated by adjusting the regulators on the bottles and the welding handle will have adjusting ability for the temperature you need for the metal you are welding.
What is the difference between oxy-acet welding and lpg welding?
The Oxy-acetylene flame is much hotter and the preferred combination for the welder especially when welding pipe and plate metal. Somewhat of a rare welding procedure in modern times. Replaced by arc welding. Liquid Propane Gas burns cooler and is preferred by employers as it is cheaper. Not bad results on light gauge material, again takes longer to heat up. -RedSeal Welder
Can LPG be used as alternative to oxy-acetelene?
LPG is liquid petroleum gas and oxy-acetylene is oxy fuel welding. The LPG can be used as an alternative to oxy-acetylene and is cheaper and can be purchased in bulk. The oxy-acetylene is best used when making shorter, thinner, and faster cuttings.
Whyargon welding is prefer instead of electric welding?
To my knowledge there is no process called Argon Welding. Argon is an inert gas used to protect the weld puddle when using the GTAW (TIG/Heliarc) and GMAW (MIG) process. Almost all welding processes utilize electricity. OAW (Oxy-Acetylene now called Oxy-Fuel) being the exception.
Kind or types of oxy-acetylene welding?
Types are aluminium, steel, bronze, brass, etc...

What is the flame commonly used in gas welding?
Oxy-Acetylene. A mixture of oxygen and acetylene. Commerically it is still acetylene, however, its chemical name is 'ethyne'. Its structure is 'H-C///C-H'. NB The symbol '///' repreent a triple bond between the two carbons.
What is acetylene welding?
Acetylene welding is a process that involves using acetylene gas as a fuel combined with oxygen to produce a high-temperature flame for joining metals together. The flame generated by burning acetylene with oxygen can reach temperatures up to 3,100 degrees Celsius, making it effective for welding tasks.
