A "flash point" is the temperature at which a LIQUID gives off a vapor that can be ignited. It is NOT the temperature at which ignition takes place. Gunpowder, being a solid, does not HAVE a flash point. It has an ignition temperature around 450 degrees F, but the exact temperature varies with the composition of the gunpowder.
I went to the store to buy some gunpowder for my cannon.
No, wet gunpowder cannot be effectively used as it may have degraded and lost its explosive properties. It is recommended to dispose of wet gunpowder properly and use fresh, dry gunpowder for safety and effectiveness.
This is the composition of gunpowder.
Mixing rubidium gunpowder with silver nitrate and capping it would likely produce a chemical reaction resulting in a flash of light, making it more of a flare rather than a decent explosive. The reaction between the two compounds may release a significant amount of light and heat but may not produce a large explosion typically associated with high-explosive materials. Additionally, using these chemicals in a confined space could be dangerous and should be avoided.
The flash point difference between diesel and gasoline is that diesel has a higher flash point than gasoline. Diesel typically has a flash point of around 125-180 degrees Celsius, while gasoline has a flash point of around -40 to -60 degrees Celsius.
It could be used for explosive testing, cannonball "fuel", and any other particular thing involving high explosives. I should also point out that fireworks utilize gunpowder.
Its explosive LOL
It doesn't. Gunpowder is ignited by the primer. The primer contains a tiny spot of sensitive explosive that detonates when crushed by the firing pin. The heat from that explosion ignites the gunpowder.It does not. In a firearm cartridge, the firing pin crushes the primer of the cartridge. This contains a very small amount of impact sensitive explosive. It explodes, and sends a small jet of flame through the flash hole of the cartridge into the gunpowder, igniting it.
By a chemical explosive known as gunpowder.
The Chinese invented Gunpowder

They used gunpowder because it is highly explosive stuff which is very strong and could of blew up the house of Parliament in seconds.
It's an explosive powder used in guns, cannons, and rifles. Hence the name gunpowder.
Depending on age of weapon; blackpowder or gunpowder
No, wet gunpowder cannot be effectively used as it may have degraded and lost its explosive properties. It is recommended to dispose of wet gunpowder properly and use fresh, dry gunpowder for safety and effectiveness.
Yes, as long as you are not purchasing it for an unlawful purpose. You can purchase gunpowder for reloading ammunition, and that's legal, but you cannot purchase gunpowder with the intent of constructing a bomb or explosive device.
The flash point of natural gas is typically not defined in the traditional sense, as natural gas is a mixture primarily composed of methane, which has a very low flash point of around -188°C (-306°F). This means it can ignite at very low temperatures when mixed with air. However, in practical applications, natural gas is usually handled in its gaseous state, making flash point considerations less relevant compared to liquid fuels. Instead, its lower explosive limit (LEL) and upper explosive limit (UEL) are more critical for safety assessments.
