Correct Answer: Nitrate, sulphur and charcoal
Solution : The correct option is Nitrate, sulphur and charcoal
Sulphur and charcoal (fuels) are combined with potassium nitrate (an oxidiser - a sort of chemical that a fuel requires to burn). These materials are mixed in precise amounts to produce gunpowder, which has traditionally been used as a propellant in weapons, fireworks, and other purposes. The composition of the combination may change significantly based on its intended application, but the core components stay constant.
