Answer:
the compounds are:
Chlorine Trifluoride (CLF3)
Substance N (another way to call CLF3)
Azido Azide Azide (C2N14)
Explanation:
The instability of the C2N14 is beyond our handling capabilities. Minor tests of load and friction led to explosive decomposition.
This is the most explosive compound known, ironically two nitrogen atoms linked with a triple covalent bond is the most stable molecule, but in the case of Azido Azide Azide none of its 14 nitrogen atoms is linked by a triple bond, which makes it very unstable.
Substance N in 1930 was a new compound was discovered by Ruff and Krug in Germany. It was too volatile, so it was ignored, until a few years after it sparked interest in Nazi scientists. They named the compound substance n and it showed very particular properties:
· Boils at room temperature and produces toxic gas
· If the gas is ignited it burns at more than 2,400 degrees Celsius
· Explodes on contact with water
· If combined with coal it forms an explosive that detonates on contact with anything else
Seeing these properties and that substance n was so good at setting fire to things that were not flammable like glass or sand the Germans decided to use it.
It is a colorless gas or a highly reactive white solid with a sweet, suffocating odor. It is transported as a greenish-yellow liquid.
It is used in rocket boosters and in the processing of fuels for atomic reactors.
