Summary
- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
- Unstable when heated: Reaction products may be unstable above ambient temperatures
- Intense or explosive reaction: Reaction may be particularly intense, violent, or explosive

Carbon reacts explosively with perchloric acid (Mellor, J.W. 1941. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 2, p. 380. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).
HNO3 reacts violently with arsenic or carbon (Pascal, P. 1956. Nouveau Traité de Chimie Minérale. Vol. 10, p. 504. Masson et Cie.).
