Answer / aadi ahanger
Calcium carbide is also used for ripening fruit artificially in some countries. When calcium carbide comes in contact with moisture, it produces acetylene gas, which is quite similar in reaction to the natural ripening agent ethylene. Acetylene acts like ethylene and accelerates the ripening process, but is inadvisable because calcium carbide has carcinogenic properties.[1] Industrial-grade calcium carbide may also contain traces of arsenic and phosphorus which makes it a human health concern.[2]
