What powders are flammable and why?

Answer 1

Because it's a powder and it's used in guns. (Gunpowder in the cartridge case is ignited by the primer when the firing pin strikes the primer. When the powder burns, a large volume of gas is generated in the confined space. This gas pressure pushes the bullet out the case and down the barrel with a bang.)
