A fine example of Explosive Combustion would be tossing a match into a puddle of gasoline. (Don't try that at home!)
The balanced equation for the explosive decomposition of dynamite is: C3H6N6O6 --> 3CO2 + 3H2O + 1.5N2 + 1.5C This equation represents the combustion reaction of TNT (trinitrotoluene), which is the main explosive component of dynamite.
The oxidizer component of a fuel-air explosive is typically the air itself, which provides the necessary oxygen for combustion. When the fuel is dispersed in the air in the right ratio, it forms an explosive mixture that can be ignited to create a powerful explosion.
Pressurized oxygen itself is not combustible, but it can enhance combustion. If a fuel source is present, pressurized oxygen can significantly increase the rate and intensity of a fire. Safety precautions are necessary when handling pressurized oxygen to prevent combustion accidents.
Most explosives contain nitrogen compounds because these compounds often have high stability and can release large amounts of energy when they undergo combustion or decomposition reactions. Nitrogen compounds such as nitroglycerin and TNT have nitrogen atoms that form strong bonds, making them highly reactive and explosive when triggered. Additionally, the presence of nitrogen allows for the release of small gas molecules during combustion, generating a rapid expansion of gases that results in an explosive force.
i dont know many examples of harmful or useful explosive reactions but i know one of each. for useful: using explosives for mining and the burning of gas in your car to let you drive around. for harmful: bombs.
Combustion, which is part of thermodynamics.
By explosion, you mean combustion I presume. Because combustion is a type of reaction, explosions are chemical changes.
The process is one of explosive combustion.
If Car exhaust fumes are mixed with any other gases it can be explosive.Answer:The exhaust from a combustion process generally have all of the combustible materials used up to form carbon dioxide and water. Neither of these are explosive. Like ashes from a fire (which are not combustible) gases of combustion are not explosive.
Sulfur itself is not explosive, but it can support combustion and may become explosive when mixed with other substances, such as saltpeter or charcoal, to form gunpowder. Pure sulfur typically combusts to produce sulfur dioxide gas rather than an explosion.
Oxygen itself is not explosive because it is not a fuel. However, when oxygen comes into contact with a fuel source (such as combustible materials like gasoline or hydrogen), it can accelerate the combustion process, leading to fires and explosions. Oxygen supports combustion but does not inherently explode on its own.

Gasoline is more explosive than many other common fuels, such as diesel and natural gas. It has a higher volatility and flammability, making it more prone to combustion when exposed to a spark or flame.
The previous answer was obscene and irrelevant. I removed it. Engine oil is combustible (i.e., flammable), whether it's new or old and dirty. It is a liquid petroleum product, and as such it's flammable. But if you mean combustible as in the term, "internal combustion engine", it is not a suitable fuel. In an internal-combustion engine, the rate of burn must be very rapid, or "explosive". Engine oil is not explosive under normal pressures. However, if pressure were very high, and if the motor oil were sprayed in tiny droplets into an oxygen-rich environment, it could become explosive enough to serve as a fuel for an internal combustion engine.
Believe it or not, it is matches. Of course this is the most common explosive everyday item. Matches uses sulfur and phosphorus and both those elements have the chemical property: combustion. In terms of arms, guns and grenades are. :) happy to help

magnesium is highly flammable, so magnesium is explosive
