Rate of flow 4'2 c.c. of gas per minute. 



Oil 0*0213 gram per 100 c.c. gas. 



Heavy oil 0-0080 



Carbon 0*0363 



Decrease in volume . . 100 to 98' 6 



On analysis the gas gave 



1. Acetylene 1*19 



Unsaturated hydrocarbons 15*21 



Paraffins 1270 \ ^. 



Methane 2778 J 



Hydrogen 41*30 



Nitrogen 1'82 



100-00 



No paraffin absorption 



2. Acetylene M9 



Unsaturated hydrocarbons 15*43 



Saturated hydrocarbons 4077 



Hydrogen 4079 



Nitrogen 1'82

Explosion of the whole- 

 Carbon dioxide 73*73 per cent. 



calculated from 1 73*28 



> > 2 73*96 



0-0363 gram of carbon = 36*3 c.c. of acetylene at 19 C. and 762 



mm. 

 0-0293 gram of oil = 27*0 c.c. of acetylene at 19 C. and 762 mm. 



Calculating these from 100 c.c. of gas to 98'6 c.c. of gas, we get 



Oil = 26-8 c.c. of acetylene at 19 C. 

 Carbon = 35'8 c.c. 



And calculating the gas analysis in the same manner as before, we 



obtain. : 



Acetylene 1*17 



Unsaturated hydrocarbons 15*00 



Saturated hydrocarbons 39*90 



Hydrogen 40*72 



Nitrogen 1-81 



98-60
