A 9mm Parabellum cartridge loaded with a standard bullet and only a primer will normally not be able to drive the bullet out of the barrel. It will usually lodge in the barrel (this is known as a squib load). If a second normal cartridge is fired behind this, it stands a very good chance of blowing up the gun.

None. Bullets generally do not contain gun powder. You may be thinking of a cartridge. Bullets are just chunks of metal.

9mm
Does a380 bullet have the same stopping power of a 9mm bullet?
The .380 is a 9mm bullet. But, going with the assuming that you're comparing the .380 ACP (9x17mm) against the 9mm Luger/9mm Parabellum (9x19mm), the answer would be no.
What is the most deadly bullet?
DRT ammo. Frangible round, a fine powder surrounded in copper. 9mm,40 s&w,5.56 nato,308 winchester. Made by Dynamic Research Technologies. Nickname "dead right there". It will go through a door, but will not go through a body. When the bullet hits a ballistic material it explodes and the powder goes into everything in about a 5" radius.
How much propellent powder is in a 9 mm primer?
None. A primer does not contain propellant powder- it contains an explosive that ignites the powder. If you mean how much propellant powder is in a 9mm cartridge, that will depend on which 9mm cartridge (there are nearly a dozen different 9mms) which weight bullet, and which powder. My basic reload data table for 9mm Parabellum (9mm Luger) is 3 pages of data with different powders, bullets, etc. A basic load is 4.5 grains of Bullseye powder with a 115 grain bullet.
How many bullets in a 9mm round?
A round is a cartridge made up of the case, primer, powder and bullet. The bullet is the projectile that leaves the gun. There is only one bullet in a round.
How much gun powder is in a 9mm?

does a 9mm use a large pistol primer or a small pistol primer?
Small - regular - not the magnum
What is the primer sensitivity of small pistol primers and regular 9mm primers?
9mm Parabellum cartridges (9mm Luger) HAVE small pistol primers. For some applications such as submachine guns with a free floating firing pin, a harder primer may be used. However, in most applications, the same primer used in .38 Special would also be used in a 9mm.

What is the force needed to to fire a 9mm bullet?
A primer will usually get it out of the case.
How much is the momentum needed to fire a 9mm bullet?
Usually just a primer will get it partway down the barrel.
What is the difference between a 9mm handgun and a 380cal?
The 9mm Lugar round is longer than a .380 Caliber, which is also equal to 9mm in diameter. The overall cartridge and the bullet is larger and the case contains more powder. The 9mm Lugar is more powerful. BTW, the .40 cal Smith and Wesson is also called a 10mm. It is only 1mm larger in diameter and a little more powerful than a 9mm Lugar.
Why does a 45 ACP produce less pressure than a 9mm?
Less powder for its size.
How fast does a 9mm 147grain travel?
A 147 grain 9mm bullet can travel between 750 and 1,000 feet per second, depending on the powder charge.
Are small rifle primers ok for use when loading 45 auto?
No. They are the wrong diameter, 45 you need large pistol/large rifle sized primer diameter. Also rifle primers are thicker and require a heavier primer strike that some pistols can not deliver. My Springfield XDM only intermittently can set off a small rifle primer when used to load 9mm.
