  2. Asphyxiant gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asphyxiant_gas

    This desire is stimulated from increasing levels of carbon dioxide. However, asphyxiant gases may displace carbon dioxide along with oxygen, preventing the victim from feeling short of breath. In addition the gases may also displace oxygen from cells, leading to loss of consciousness and death rapidly.

  3. Carbon disulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_disulfide

    Carbon disulfide (also spelled as carbon disulphide) is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula CS 2 and structure S=C=S. It is also considered as the anhydride of thiocarbonic acid . [ 8 ] It is a colorless, flammable, neurotoxic liquid that is used as a building block in organic synthesis.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breathing_gas

    A breathing gas is a mixture of gaseous chemical elements and compounds used for respiration. Air is the most common and only natural breathing gas. Other mixtures of gases, or pure oxygen, are also used in breathing equipment and enclosed habitats such as scuba equipment, surface supplied diving equipment, recompression chambers, high-altitude mountaineering, high-flying aircraft, submarines ...

  7. Barking dog reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barking_dog_reaction

    In simple terms, the 'Barking Dog' reaction is a combustion process, in which a fuel (carbon disulfide, CS 2) reacts with an oxidizing agent (nitrous oxide, N 2 O), producing heat and elemental sulfur. The flame front in the reaction is a zone of very hot, luminous gas, produced by the reactants decomposing. 8 N 2 O + 4 CS 2 → S 8 + 4 CO 2 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flammability_limit

    Controlling gas and vapor concentrations outside the flammable limits is a major consideration in occupational safety and health. Methods used to control the concentration of a potentially explosive gas or vapor include use of sweep gas, an unreactive gas such as nitrogen or argon to dilute

  9. Organosulfur chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organosulfur_chemistry

    Organosulfur chemistry is the study of the properties and synthesis of organosulfur compounds, which are organic compounds that contain sulfur. [1] They are often associated with foul odors, but many of the sweetest compounds known are organosulfur derivatives, e.g., saccharin.
