Answer 1

I work as a chemist, I know what I'm talking about.

Note: I don't want to sound like your mother, but these home made bomb formulas that are found all over on the internet are VERY DANGEROUS! I strongly suggest you not do it! The actual explosion of the bottle (as long as it's plastic) probably would do little damage, but, depending on the chemicals involved, (which will splatter everywhere), If it gets in your eyes it could cause permenant blindness! If it gets on your face, you might never get a date again! If you're just trying to make a really loud noise, see if you can get a friend who works in a lab get you some of the rubber bulbs that are used with Pasteur pippettes. They're made from tan colored gum rubber. If you inflate them with a bicycle pump, or air compressor, when they burst, the noise is unbelievable!

Answer 2

First off you shouldnt be trying this if you dont know what you are doing, and whats going on. This may seem safe becuase your using household chemicals, but in actuality it is more dangerous due to the fact that YOU HAVE KNOW IDEA WHATS IN THEM!!! I cant tell you what household chemicals to use to make this happen, because you shouldnt be using them for anything but their intended purposes. But i can tell you that you dont want to use hydrocholoric acid. And actually you shoudnt be doing this any ways so im done here
