That depends on a lot more than the weight of the explosive.

The type of explosive

How it's packed

The material being fragmented

The shape of the fragments

To give you an illustration, a Mark II grenade (the "pineapple" one) has an effective injury radius of about 10 meters, but someone could still be injured by one 100 meters away.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
