Acetylene was first discovered by the chemist Edmund Davy in 1836. However, it was the American chemist Thomas Willson who is credited with the first practical method of producing acetylene in 1892. Willson's work paved the way for the industrial use of acetylene, particularly in welding and as a fuel source.
What else can I help you with?
What is the geometry at the carbons in the acetylene?
Acetylene has a linear molecule.
What acetylene oxidation state?
Acetylene is a neutral compound.
Is acetylene a proplene based fuel?
Acetylene, C2H2, is a pretty simple hydrocarbon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylene
How chloroform converted to acetylene?
Chloroform cannot be directly converted to acetylene. Acetylene is typically produced from calcium carbide through a reaction known as the acetylene generation process. In this process, water is added to calcium carbide to produce acetylene gas.
When was Acetylene - album - created?
Acetylene - album - was created in 2005.
What polymers are derived from acetylene gas is called polychloroprene?
Acetylene
Another name for acetylene?
Acetylene (C2H2) is also known as ethyne. It is the simplest alkyne.
What is the percentage of carbon in acetylene?
probably 92.3% of carbon is present in acetylene..
The empirical formula for acetylene?
Acetylene is C2H2 so its emperical formula is C1H1.
What color is acetylene hoses?
In normal usage in an oxy/acetylene cutting torch, the acetylene hose is red and the oxygen hose is green.
Gas used in welding is what?
GASSES - Oxygen and Acetylene. Acetylene is sometimes replaced by a mixture of gasses. The Oxygen increases the burning rate/temperature of Acetylene and temperatures in excess of 6,000o F can be reached.
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.
