Acetylene (ethyne) gas is generated by reacting calcium carbide with water. The reaction is carried out in an atmosphere of chlorine gas in a glass cylinder. The acetylene reactsvigorously with the chlorine, producing a yellow flame and black soot. The products of the reaction include carbon and hydrogen chloride.
