Carbide

Carbide is a likely Colonial term for carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide.

Boomer attributes Jolly's poor approach and subsequent landing to his breather unit possibly leaking carbide ^{(TOS: "Lost Planet of the Gods, Part I")}.

Notes

• In reality, carbide is a carbon-containing alloy; it is also a term used to describe a polyatomic ion C₂^2- or monatomic ion C⁴⁻, or any salt of such.
