Smokeless powder and black powder are easily substitutable.

True
False

The correct answer is: False

This statement is false because smokeless powder and black powder are two different types of gunpowder and cannot be substituted for one another. Smokeless powder produces significantly less smoke than black powder and also has a more stable energy output, making it more suitable for modern firearms. Attempting to substitute one powder for the other could result in dangerous consequences, such as decreased accuracy or even explosions. Therefore, it is important to use the correct type of powder for your specific firearm.
