Acetylene, a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C2H2, is typically produced through a process called calcium carbide method. When calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water (H2O), it produces acetylene (C2H2) and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2). The chemical equation for this reaction is CaC2 + 2 H2O → C2H2 + Ca(OH)2. To conduct this reaction, finely ground calcium carbide is placed in a generator where water is dripped or sprayed onto it, generating acetylene gas. This process must be carefully controlled, as acetylene is highly flammable and can be explosive under certain conditions. Acetylene is widely used as a fuel in welding and metal cutting processes due to its high heat of combustion.
