Does tnt need oxygen?

TNT is a very fuel-rich explosive as indicated by the large negative oxygen balance value of −74%. It means that there is not enough oxygen in its initial chemical compound and extra oxygen is needed to make the afterburning energy release possible.

Do trees use oxygen?
While trees use carbon dioxide to make their own food, they actually need oxygen (much like humans do) to process that food into energy. In order to use stored starch for growth, trees must convert the sugars back into energy through a process called respiration. Respiration requires oxygen.

How explosive is 1kg of tnt?
An overpressure of 230 kPa (33.4 psi) corresponding to detonation of 1 kg of TNT generates a blast wind of over 240 km/h measured near the point of origin. The mechanism of injury may be predicted by an individual's distance from a detonation.

Can bedrock be destroyed with tnt?
It's not possible to break bedrock with any amount of TNT, since bedrock has such a high blast resistance that TNT simply can barely make a dent in it, let alone overcome it completely. Bedrock has a blast resistance of 18,000,000. (That's 3,000 times more durable than obsidian.)
