RESERCHING PROCESS METHODS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ACETYLENE
Keywords:
hydroxide, Calcium acetylide, cal¬ci¬um car¬bide, chemical reaction, acetylene, chemical compound, mo¬lar mass.Abstract
Acetylene is a highly flammable gas which is colorless, lighter than air and has a garlic-like odor. Being colorless and inflammable gas, it is employed as a fuel and a chemical building block. It remains unstable in pure form so it is usually handled as a solution. The chemical compound with the formula C2H2 a compound of carbon and hydrogen. It is not only a hydrocarbon, but also the simplest alkyne. Lumps of calcium carbide are placed on the layer of sand in conical flask fitted with a dropping funnel and delivery tube. Water is dropped from the dropping funnel whereby ethyne(acetylene) is formed. It is passed through the acidified solution of CuSO4 for the purification.
