Ethylene :: Ethylene (n.) A colorless, gaseous hydrocarbon, C2H4, forming an important ingredient of illuminating gas, and also obtained by the action of concentrated sulphuric acid in alcohol. It is an unsaturated compound and combines directly with chlorine and bromine to form oily liquids (Dutch liquid), -- hence called olefiant gas.

If set free it immediately attacks the containing material, so that it was not isolated until 1886. It is a pungent, corrosive, colorles
