Ethylene \Eth"yl*ene\ (-[=e]n), n. [From {Ethyl}.] (Chem.)
   A colorless, gaseous hydrocarbon, {C2H4}, forming an
   important ingredient of illuminating gas, and also obtained
   by the action of concentrated sulphuric acid in alcohol. It
   is an unsaturated compound and combines directly with
   chlorine and bromine to form oily liquids (Dutch liquid), --
   hence called {olefiant gas}. Called also {ethene}, {elayl},
   and formerly, {bicarbureted hydrogen}.
