Is acetone used in the process of making ammonium nitrate?
No, it is not used, the industrial preparation of Ammonium Nitrate depends on simple neutralization reaction between ammonia (Base) and Nitric (Acid) giving Ammonium Nitrate. Even the process of prilling or granulation doesn't include addition of Acetone. I believe the Ammonium Nitrate Acetone mixture is hazard as it is a combination of strong oxidizer and highly inflammable substance. Regards;
What is the difference between ammonium nitrate and ammonium chloride?
Ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3 Ammonium chloride is NH4Cl
What is inside ammonium nitrate?
The formula for ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3.
What risks are there when using ammonium nitrate?
It depends completely on what you are using it for. It is slightly toxic, and it is also a strong oxidizer (I think it's even stronger than ammonium perchlorate). Mixing it with metal powders or combustible materials can cause an explosion.
Formula for ammonium nitrate?
The formula of ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3. By the way, to make ammonium nitrate, add nitric acid to ammonia. Ammonium nitrate is used commercially in instant cold packs.
What is Ammonium nitrate validity as explosive?
Ammonium nitrate is not explosive, it is an effective oxidizer. Mix it with a fuel and you have explosive.
Does fertiliser burn?
A lot of fertilizer contains ammonium nitrate (NH4-NO3) which will detonate if it is pure enough and started with a blasting cap. If simply placed on a fire it may or may not burn depending on the purity of ammonium nitrate. If diesel fuel is added to ammonium nitrate fertilizer it is called a Fuel-Oxidizer fire, or fuel oxidizer bomb as the case may be.

Is ammonium nitrate basic?
No, ammonium nitrate is acidic.
Is calcium ammonium nitrate or ammonium nitrate better?
ammonium nitrate is the best because it also give nitrogen!
What is the difference between ammonium nitrate and ammonium chloride?
Ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3 Ammonium chloride is NH4Cl
What is inside ammonium nitrate?
The formula for ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3.
Does ammonium nitrate precipitate out?
No. Ammonium nitrate is water soluble.
What is the formulae of Ammonium nitrate?
The formula for ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3
Is ammonium nitrate a metal?
Ammonium nitrate - NH4NO3 - is a salt.
Is ammonium nitrate a compound?
Yes, ammonium nitrate is a compound.
Is ammonium nitrate and sodium nitrate same?
No. Ammonium nitrate contains the ammonium ion NH4+, and has the formula NH4NO3, and sodium nitrate has the formula NaNO3.
