Carbureted \Car"bu*ret`ed\, a.
   1. (Chem.) Combined with carbon in the manner of a carburet
      or carbide.

   2. Saturated or impregnated with some volatile carbon
      compound; as, water gas is carbureted to increase its
      illuminating power. [Written also {carburetted}.]

   {Carbureted hydrogen gas}, any one of several gaseous
      compounds of carbon and hydrogen, some of with make up
      illuminating gas.

   {Light carbureted hydrogen}, marsh gas, {CH4}; fire damp



   Note: Although a gas, hydrogen is chemically similar to the
         metals in its nature, having the properties of a weak
         base. It is, in all acids, the base which is replaced
         by metals and basic radicals to form salts. Like all
         other gases, it is condensed by great cold and pressure
         to a liquid which freezes and solidifies by its own
         evaporation. It is absorbed in large quantities by
         certain metals (esp. palladium), forming alloy-like
         compounds; hence, in view of quasi-metallic nature, it
         is sometimes called {hydrogenium}. It is the typical
         reducing agent, as opposed to oxidizers, as oxygen,
         chlorine, etc.

   {Bicarbureted hydrogen}, an old name for ethylene.

   {Carbureted hydrogen gas}. See under {Carbureted}.

   {Hydrogen dioxide}, a thick, colorless liquid, {H2O2},
      resembling water, but having a bitter, sour taste,
      produced by the action of acids on barium peroxide. It
      decomposes into water and oxygen, and is manufactured in
      large quantities for an oxidizing and bleaching agent.
      Called also {oxygenated water}.
