Acetylene, a compound of carbon and hydrogen, is a colorless, highly flammable gas. It is slightly lighter than air and has a garlic-like odor. Acetylene is manufactured by the reaction of water with calcium carbide, and is dissolved in acetone as a stabilizer for storage and transportation.
Acetylene is used for chemical synthesis and for oxy-acetylene cutting, heating and welding.
