How can you use “trinitrotoluene” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Ferrate(VI) is a very strong oxidizing agent and will readily oxidize many organic molecules in aqueous solution [ 19 20 21 ] . High oxidation power selectivity and by-production of non-toxic Fe(III) make potassium ferrate(VI) an environmentally friendly oxidant for removal of industrial contaminants from natural waters [ 22 ] . We confirmed this degradative activity of ferrate using 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), though a mixture of dodecane and hexadecane, as might be found within microbial membranes, was not degraded by ferrate(VI) (Figures 1and 2).

  • Treatment mixtures contained 25 mg of pure silica sand as a soil surrogate, about 5 mg K 2 FeO 4 , and different amounts of the nitrated organic compound 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT); amounts of TNT were 5, 10, 15, or 20 mg.

  • For example, five mg of ferrate removed about 10 mg of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) from the reaction mixture (Figure 1).
