Calcium carbide is produced industrially in an electric arc furnace from a mixture of lime and coke at approximately 2,200 °C (3,990 °F).It is a pivotal inorganic compound known for its industrial form as gray-black block-like material, often displaying purple or gray cross-sections.  It reacts violently with water, forming acetylene and releasing heat. Primarily, it's employed for two key purposes: as a source of acetylene gas with applications in welding, cutting, and fuel, and as a raw material in organic synthesis for chemicals like vinyl chloride and synthetic resin.
