Ethylene, or C2H4 has two trigonal planar type molecular geometries and its center is tetrahedral. Also, the angular geometry of the H-C=C bond in ethylene is 121.3 degrees.

The standard free energy of formation of C2H2 is +209.20 kJ/mole, while that of C2H4 is +68.15 kJ/mole (and H2 zero since it is an element in its standard state). thus, at standard temperature and pressure (25 C, 1 Bar pressure) the reaction C2H2 + H2 -> C2H4 has a standard free energy change of -141 kJ/mole and thus "spontaneous" in that equilibrium constant >> 1.
The Duval triangle is a diagnostic tool for oil insulated equipment. The three sides of an equilateral triangle form the axes representing the relative concentrations of methane (CH4), ethylene (C2H4) andacetylene (C2H2).The methane concentration is plotted along the axis with a positive gradient, ethylene along the axis with the negative gradient and acetylene along the horizontal axis : but going in the from right to left.The triangle is divided into a number of zones which indicate the most likely cause of failure.The Duval triangle is a diagnostic tool for oil insulated equipment.
