Is there a way to calculate just how loud a fuel air explosion will be.

I got 2C2H2(g) + 5O2(g) → 4CO2(g) + 2H2O for a Acetylene Oxygen Combustion.

A ratio of 2 parts Acetylene and 5 parts Oxygen.

I am trying to calculate the reaction if I am using Air .

I know Air has Nitrogen, Oxygen and other gases. Do I have to factor in the other gases?

Thank you for any help.
