The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Components of Amatol**: Amatol is a type of explosive that is a mixture of two main components. The first component is TNT, which stands for trinitrotoluene. 2. **Determine the Second Component**: The second component that is commonly mixed with TNT to create amatol is ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). 3. **Understand the Composition**: Amatol typically consists of a specific ratio of TNT and ammonium nitrate. This combination enhances the explosive properties of the mixture. 4. **Conclusion**: Therefore, in the explosive amatol, TNT is mixed with ammonium nitrate. **Final Answer**: In the explosive amatol, TNT is mixed with ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). ---
