This reaction is an example of detonation, a relative of the chemical process of combustion. ANFO (Ammonium Nitrate Fuel Oil) contains both an oxidizer and fuel source. The ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) reacts with the alkanes in fuel oil (CnH2n+2) to produce Nitrogen (N2), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
the mixture is 2 U.S. quarts of fuel oil per 50 lbs of ammonium nitrate. or %93.7 ammonium nitrate, and %6.3 fuel oil. A blasting cap is needed to detonate anfo because it is very stable unlike Acetone Peroxide which is a good booster when using ANFO because it takes a very little amount of Acetone Peroxide to set of ANFO and Acentone Peroxide can be set of with a flame or even as little as shooting it or hitting it with a hammer can set it off because it is so sensitive.
Oh, dude, ANFO is made by mixing ammonium nitrate and fuel oil together. It's like making a really explosive salad dressing, but way more dangerous. Just be careful not to shake it too hard, or you might end up with a bigger bang than you bargained for.
ANFO (ammonium nitrate/fuel oil) was created as a mining explosive in the 1950s by combining ammonium nitrate and fuel oil to create a more effective and economical blasting agent compared to dynamite. Its discovery was a result of efforts to improve the safety, cost, and performance of explosives used in the mining industry.
Yes, "detonate" and "explode" are similar in that they both refer to a sudden release of energy, causing a violent bursting or shattering. However, "detonate" specifically implies a rapid and violent chemical reaction, often triggered by a detonator, while "explode" can encompass a broader range of sudden and forceful outward expansion.
The mixture is referred to as ANFO. The explosive mixture is widely used in the mining and heavy construction industry. A hiogh expllosive detinator is required to get the mixture to release it's potential energy.
Anfo's population is 489.

Average ANFO cost in the US is $.48 cents per pound if bought in bulk.
A gram of ANFO explosive yields about 6300 Joules of energy. The value is usually expressed as 6.3 MJ/kg.

It is legal in some places to make ANFO if you have the necessary permits and follow safety regulations. However, ANFO is a high explosive that can be dangerous to make and handle due to its sensitivity to ignition and shock. It is recommended to purchase ANFO from licensed suppliers rather than attempting to make it yourself.
The small device was used to detonate the mining charges.
I am willing to detonate this structure for a fair price.
No, it can't be detonated without an explosive.
