Bone is not. Explosives are typically based on chlorates or nitrates that are chemically unstable, and can drop to a lower energy state. In doing so, they give up energy- which is the explosion.
Phosphorus is used in making fertilizers, and explosives.
The three categories of high explosives are primary explosives, secondary explosives, and tertiary explosives. Primary explosives are very sensitive and are used to initiate a detonation. Secondary explosives are more stable and are commonly used in commercial and military applications. Tertiary explosives are less sensitive and are often used as propellants.
Most common is nitrogen.
What are the least sensitive explosives used by military
8) Which of the following are used to detect high-yield explosives?
Kaolin
Whale parts are not used to make explosives.
No.....because if they banned explosives, then we will have no fireworks :( x :) More importantly, even outside of military use, explosives are critical for modern civilization. Explosives are used extensively in the mining for minerals, and in drilling and extraction of various fossil fuels. They are also used in both construction and demolition of buildings and other infrastructure. Making explosives illegal to use would make many of these tasks harder, more expensive, and often much more dangerous, and some tasks are simply not doable without using explosives.
8) Which of the following are used to detect high-yield explosives?
Everyone loves to cook with grease especially me!
Conventional explosivesNuclear explosives (both fission and fusion)
Nitric acid may or may not have been used in making the chemical explosives, depending on the types of explosive usedNitric acid is one of the solvents used in uranium and plutonium chemical processing and refining (so is sulfuric acid and several organic solvents)
