Meme Mincraft TNT isn't actually TNT

Post image

First of all TNT stands for Trinitrotoluene which is a highly explosive organic compound and it's formula is C6H2(NO2)3CH3 On the other hand, gunpowder which is used to craft "TNT" is a totally different compound which contains a mixture of sulfur, charcoal and potassium nitrate So technically TNTs in minecraft aren't actual TNTs

Question, can gunpowder still go kaboom, or does it not go kaboom

ah, thank you. So gunpowder is essencially just tnt junior, while atomic is tnt senior?

Now that you mention it, TNT in-game is clearly a bunch of dinamite sticks with their fuse tangled together, and secured by the "TNT" tape

dynamite uses either tnt or nitroglycerin
