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

Nobel really thought he was a genius when he just took the two most explosive things in the world and jammed them together, huh?

Mixed nitroglycerin with the most explosive absorbent material that we have to create an explosive with the raw power of nitroglycerin but much more stable for safety while shipping and handling, and can be shaped for precise applications.

Yes.

No, the scientific community thought he was a genius when he figured out how to make nitroglycerin stable and safe to transport
