05 Gunpowder day in Freeland. Gunpowder, also known as black powder, is a chemical explosive. It is a mixture of charcoal, (75%) sulfur, (15%) and potassium nitrate (10%). The sulfur and charcoal act as fuels, and the potassium nitrate is a burning agent. Because of its burning properties and the amount of heat and gas volume that it generates, gunpowder has been widely used as a propellant in firearms and as a pyrotechnic composition in fireworks. I am not saying you should make some, but if you do, don't let your bone-headed neighbor stir it around with a hot soldering iron.
Unless you want a house full of white smoke.
Half an hour before your mother comes home.
But that would be the neighbor down the street
The next door neighbor will call you a jackass because your car is on fire.
Whatever.
If you did want to make gun powder, try not to use stump remover potassium nitrate, available at Home Depot, or Loews, because the grade in stump remover is
generally high in contaminants and stabilizers, or stabilized potassium
nitrate, that won't readily decompose (explode) the way it should.
What I used to use was high school science lab grade potassium nitrate, the good stuff. just toss a five pound can out of the window, into the oleander bushes and collect it later. The Science teacher, Mr Robillard, only had one eye. So we would say "Robillard, two "L's" one eye".
Oh, when I said "I" it was meant in the most generic way possible. I did not intend to imply that I had anything to do with missing chemicals, or at least, not without my lawyer present.
And don't even get me started about calcium carbide, and how, when mixed with water, produces a huge amount of Acetylene gas.
Very explosive Acetylene gas.
Seriously, very explosive Acetylene gas.
