The so-called explosive is actually a general term for an unstable substance that causes violent explosions when exposed to high temperatures or impact.
In the modern world, it initially refers to a product generated from the reaction of ethanol and mercury in nitric acid—cyanine mercury.
Because it is often used to make detonators and explosives, it is also called mercury fulminate.
However, with the advancement of time, this compound was replaced by another explosive called lead azide due to factors such as corrosion of capsules and instability.
But Lance didn't understand these things; his knowledge of chemistry was only at the middle and high school level, and he might not even remember it all. Even if he did, it wouldn't be of much use.
The key basic chemicals in chemistry, the three acids and two bases, haven't been created.
Or perhaps they have been created, but haven't been applied in the correct aspects.
