Fine Art Print : TNT molecule
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
TNT molecule
TNT molecule. Molecular model of trinitrotoluene (TNT, formula C7H5N3O6), also known as 2, 4, 6- trinitromethylbenzene. In the model, carbon atoms are black, hydrogen are white, nitrogen are blue and oxygen are red. TNT forms yellow crystals. It was first synthesised in 1863 by the nitration of toluene with nitric and sulphuric acids. It found its greatest use as an explosive in weapons during World War 1. In peacetime, explosives are used for demolition and mining work. TNT has been largely superceded by more efficient and destructive explosives

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of the TNT molecule, also known as trinitrotoluene. The molecular model beautifully illustrates the composition of this explosive compound, with carbon atoms depicted in black, hydrogen in white, nitrogen in blue, and oxygen in red. Notably forming yellow crystals, TNT was first synthesized back in 1863 through a process involving nitration of toluene using nitric and sulfuric acids. During World War 1, TNT found its greatest use as an explosive component for various weapons. However, even during peacetime, this powerful compound has proven invaluable for demolition and mining work due to its destructive capabilities. Over time though, more efficient explosives have largely replaced TNT. The photograph emphasizes the significance of chemistry within our world by highlighting the structural complexity of this organic compound. The ball-and-stick representation effectively demonstrates how atoms are connected by bonds to form molecules like TNT. Science Photo Library presents this image as a testament to scientific exploration and discovery. It serves as a reminder that while TNT may be renowned for its explosive properties historically used in warfare applications - it is crucial not to overlook its broader role within chemical research and development beyond commercial use.
