Are you smoking something? He edited to say that he found out chlorine was naturally greenish, then proposed the question of which industrial gas was he thinking about that was dyed. I proposed that it could possibly be propane or another incendiary gas that was dyed green industrially, citing the fact that dangerous gases like it are commonly doped with chemicals more obvious to the senses.
Recap: I claim i produced chlorine gas from electrolysis of salt water, which, in fact, i did. He claims that what i called "green stuff [chlorine]" was in fact colorless, doped when used industrially for safety. He rescinds that claim, and poses the question "what am i confusing it with." I make the suggestion of an otherwise colorless incendiary gas, for the simple sake of proposing a possibility as to what is industrially doped.
There was no confusion of chlorine and a hydrocarbon, at all, merely the confusion of chlorine being a naturally colorless gas, which it isn't.
Moreover, I am perfectly aware that you cannot produce a hydrocarbon from a solution containing no carbon in the first place.
EDIT: AAAAAAALright, I finally caught your thought process. HE wasn't suggesting that the gas i was producing was organic. He was just suggesting it wasn't naturally green. He wasn't sure in the first place what gas WAS
dyed green, so it wasnt that he was confusing propane or the like with chlorene, i think you got that from MY post suggesting it might be propane that's doped. So in turn, he wasn't actually ever thinking that a hydrocarbon was issuing from my stew, thats the point.
Sorry for all that confusion
