It appears as a colourless, odorless flammable gas at room temperature. [3] Fluoroethane can also cause asphyxiation by the displacement of oxygen in air. [4]
Highly Toxic: a gas that has a LC 50 in air of 200 ppm or less. [2] NFPA 704: Materials that, under emergency conditions, can cause serious or permanent injury are given a Health Hazard rating of 3. Their acute inhalation toxicity corresponds to those vapors or gases having LC 50 values greater than 1,000 ppm but less than or equal to 3,000 ppm ...
Carbon monoxide (chemical formula CO) is a poisonous, flammable gas that is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and slightly less dense than air.Carbon monoxide consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom connected by a triple bond.
This is a list of gases at standard conditions, which means substances that boil or sublime at or below 25 °C (77 °F) and 1 atm pressure and are reasonably stable.
The agent is odorless, colorless, electrically non-conductive, non-corrosive, and leaves no residue. It is used in occupied enclosed areas that contain high-value assets. HFC-125 suppresses fire by absorbing heat energy at its molecular level faster than the heat can be generated, so the fire cannot sustain itself.
It is a colorless, odorless, flammable gas. [1] It is a class II ozone depleting substance and in accordance with the montreal protocol, its production and import were banned on 1 January 2015. [ 2 ]
Natural gas leaks happen nearly every day in the U.S. — and they can be deadly if they go undetected. A report from a group of Texas environmental nonprofits released in June found around 2,600 ...
At standard temperature and pressure, ethane is a colorless, odorless gas. Like many hydrocarbons, ethane is isolated on an industrial scale from natural gas and as a petrochemical by-product of petroleum refining. Its chief use is as feedstock for ethylene production. The ethyl group is formally, although rarely practically, derived from ethane.
