Ethylene

Ethylene is a highly flammable combustible gas; sometimes used in inhalations as an anesthetic. It usually does not have any toxic effects, but after inhalation, patients often develop nausea and vomiting.

ETHYLOESTRENOL (ethyloestrenol) is a steroid drug with anabolic properties; used to treat diseases associated with a decrease in protein content in the bones (for example, osteoporosis). Prescribed internally; can sometimes cause nausea, swelling and menstrual irregularities (especially if taken in large doses). Trade name: Orabolin.



Ethylene is a highly flammable combustible gas that is sometimes used in inhalation procedures as an anesthetic. It does not usually cause toxic effects on the body, but may cause nausea and vomiting in patients who inhale it.

Ethyl oestrenol, also known as ethyl estradiol or orabolin, is a steroid drug with anabolic properties. It is used to treat various diseases associated with decreased protein levels in the bones, such as osteoporosis. Ethyl estradiol is given orally and may cause nausea, swelling, and menstrual irregularities.

Both of these substances are medications that may have their own benefits and risks. However, before using any of them, you should consult your doctor and follow his recommendations.



Ethylene

Ethylene is carbon monoxide C2H4. The substance has toxic properties, but its use for medical purposes is beyond the scope of this chapter. We will look mainly at its interesting chemical properties. Among natural compounds, the most common is ethylene alcohol - ethanol CH3СOH - grape alcohol. Since its production from plant materials is simple and economical, it becomes the most used of all organic alcohols. Currently, there are approximately 30 thousand organic compounds, of which 2/3 are synthetic (according to 1975 data). In this chapter we will consider only those that are of any practical value.

Physical properties Ethylene, as the malacentic molecule CH2=CH2 itself, belongs to typical isomers or structural entities with a triple bond. The term "molecular compound" was coined for molecules or molecules consisting of identical molecules - i.e. type P (S) P. Similarly, molecules or molecules of type C=C are also called molecular compounds. This triple bond gives the ethylene molecule unique energetic characteristics that distinguish it from any organic or inorganic molecules. Ethylene is in the liquid phase at room temperature, forming a colorless, mobile liquid with a faint fruity odor. Melting point – (-16.5 degrees) Celsius. However, it is usually used in the form of liquefied gases, which can only be used in a closed system. For example, a breathing apparatus. Under the name “ethylene gas” we will again present the natural form as a liquid carbon compound C2H10. It is one of the most reactive compounds of the class of saturated hydrocarbons. At room temperature, thermal decomposition occurs (in the presence of oxygen), but the stability of the molecule depends on the nature of the catalyst. The most effective catalyst is heated coal. In the presence of air, even just residual air, the decomposition of ethylene is accelerated quite significantly, possibly to explosive levels. Therefore, ethylene should always be stored and transported in sealed, flat-bottomed bottles. Salts are sometimes added to prevent decomposition, because although salt usually dries out the ethylene, the compound eventually decomposes, releasing water from the salt. Dissolved salts of calcium Ca, magnesium Mg, manganese Mn, zinc Zn or molybdenum Mo are used in the electrodes. Some metals used in
