Molecular model of the explosive TNT
TNT. Molecular model of the explosive TNT, or trinitrotoluene (formula: C7H5N3O6). The atoms are spherical and colour-coded: carbon (blue), oxygen (red), hydrogen (white) and nitrogen (light blue). This chemical was first synthesised in 1863, and found its greatest use as an explosive in weapons in World War 1. In peacetime, explosives are used for demolition and mining work. During detonation, the structure breaks down into several gases, including carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogen. This sudden change from a solid to many volumes of gas is what gives the explosive its power. TNT has been largely superceded by more efficient and destructive explosives

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a molecular model of the explosive TNT, or trinitrotoluene. The intricate structure is composed of spherical atoms, each uniquely color-coded to represent carbon (blue), oxygen (red), hydrogen (white), and nitrogen (light blue). With its formula C7H5N3O6, this chemical compound was first synthesized in 1863 and gained prominence as a powerful weapon during World War 1. While primarily known for its destructive capabilities on the battlefield, TNT also plays a crucial role in peacetime activities such as demolition and mining work. When detonated, this solid substance undergoes a remarkable transformation into various gases including carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen. It is this sudden release of gas that generates the immense power behind explosives like TNT. Although once widely utilized for its potency, TNT has now been largely surpassed by more efficient and devastating alternatives. Nonetheless, this stunning image serves as a reminder of the significant contributions made by chemistry in shaping our world's history. Delving into the realm of combustion and chemical reactions at their core level allows us to appreciate both the awe-inspiring beauty and formidable force that molecules possess. Captured by Science Photo Library with precision and expertise, this print offers an intriguing glimpse into the fascinating world of explosives without delving into commercial applications.
