After seeing the back and forth arguing between the chemical nature of the "explosive," I'm surprised no one mentioned the effect of orientation with activation energy. For example, the gum, which is likely non-polar (during chewing --> i think it slowly changes its structure to become more polar after being exposed to air...or is it the other way around? --> please correct me here if I'm wrong), can be an adhesive agent for compounds of similar polarity. Should the explosive powder he was chewing be an organic molecule, the major way that energy could have been released to such an extent would likely be so that the energy of the products is relatively lower than the energy of the reactants (exothermic). This might be due to a simple Sn substitution or even elimination to form more stable products. Since these reactions could be stereoselective, it probably makes more sense that the gum allowed a certain configuration to cause the reaction. My point is.........mabye its not the solvent, but rather the gum itself that facilitated the rxn because of assistance in orientation. AS for the actual substance, that will take a strenuous time to figure out. (resynthesizing old molecules back takes forever) | ||
