What is/are the full form(s) of HMX?
1. High Melting Explosive
2. High-Density Monoatomic Xenon
3. Hedge Monetizing Xenocurrency
4. Her Majesty's Explosive
Select the correct answer using the codes given below.
Answer: C
The full forms are 1 and 4.
HMX (octogen) is a powerful high explosive, cyclotetramethylene tetranitramine. The letters are explained in two ways: 'High Melting Explosive', because it melts at a much higher temperature than its relative RDX, and 'Her Majesty's Explosive', from its British wartime development. Both are commonly given.
'High-Density Monoatomic Xenon' and 'Hedge Monetizing Xenocurrency' are invented and have nothing to do with HMX.
