What is calcium carbide used for?
Calcium carbide reacts with water to produce acetylene and calcium hydroxide. Calcium carbide can also be made from this compound by reacting with nitrogen at relatively high temperatures. Calcium carbide is also used for the desulfurization of iron.

 

Calcium carbide Chemical Properties
