Nitroglycerin is the explosive component of dynamite but it is not in its pure form in dynamite: it is stabilized in a clay-like substance.
Pure nitroglycerin is to unstable to be stored or transported for everyday used. It is very easy to set off accidentally, hence the need to be stabilized.
What else can I help you with?
What are the common name for nitroglycerin?
"Nitroglycerine" is the common name.Dynamite is a mixture of nitroglycerin and an inert material such as diatomaceous earth.
Is nitroglycerine the same thing as dynamite?
Nitroglycerin is the explosive component of dynamite but it is not in its pure form in dynamite: it is stabilized in a clay-like substance. Pure nitroglycerin is to unstable to be stored or transported for everyday used. It is very easy to set off accidentally, hence the need to be stabilized.
Is there nitrogen in nitroglycerine?
Yes, Nitroglycerin (C3H5N3O9) has 3 nitrogen atoms in every molecule.
Is exploding of nitroglycerin chemical change?
Yes. The nitroglycerine is chemically decomposing into simpler substances.
Is exploding of nitroglycerin a chemical change?
Yes. The nitroglycerine is chemically decomposing into simpler substances.
The chemical formula for nitroglycerin is C3H5(NO3)3. What classification does nitroglycerine belong to?
element
What is the molar mass of Nitroglycerin?
The Molar mass of Nitroglycerine / C3H5(NO3)3 = 227.0865 g/mol
Why does nitroglycerin lower than the blood pressure?
for ur information nitroglycerine lowers bp
Who invented nitroglycerin?
Nitroglycerine/nitroglycerin was invented in 1847 by chemist Ascanio Sobrero, who was working under TJ Pelouze at the University of Turin. He called it pyroglycerine (possibly b/c "pyro" is latin for "fire") and pleaded against its use in several letters and articles.
How has dynamite changed over time?
Dynamite once consisted only of nitroglycerine and an absorbent material. It now rarely contains nitroglycerin, but uses a combination of other explosive materials, powdered metals, etc. The result is a safer product, a wider range of energy and characteristics, and fewer health problems for the people using it (nitroglycerin headaches are VERY bad)
Why is dynamite safer than nitroglycerine?
Dynamite is considered safer than nitroglycerin because it is more stable and less sensitive to shock and temperature changes. Dynamite is made by absorbing nitroglycerin into an inert material, which reduces the likelihood of accidental detonation. Additionally, dynamite can be handled and transported with less risk compared to the highly volatile nature of pure nitroglycerin, which can explode with minimal provocation. This makes dynamite a more practical choice for construction and demolition purposes.
A patient takes a nitroglycerine tablet sublingually for chest pain Nitroglycerin acts directly on smooth muscle producing relaxation and vessel dilation How would this relieve chest pain?
Angina pectoris is thoracic pain caused by a fleeting deficiency in oxygen delivery to the myocardium. Because nitroglycerin acts as a vasodilator, blood flow to the heart is increased, promoting the delivery of oxygen to the cells.
