No, Green Goblin did not use the same type of disintegrating bomb on Spider-Man as he did on the Oscorp board members. He used a specialized pumpkin bomb that instantly disintegrated the board members into skeletons. However, during his fights with Spider-Man, Goblin used other types of bombs that caused explosive damage but did not have the same disintegration effect.
Otherwise, if he did, this would mean Spider-Man is insanely durable, as it would require hundreds of millions - if not billions - of joules to instantly vaporize four adult males down to their skeletons.

They might work on Doc Ock if they get past the tentacles. However the tentacles did seem to increase his durability, else he wouldve been knocked out by the first punch or kick Spiderman gave him.
Yeah like he survived a multi -storey drop onto a moving train and bounced off and wasn't even phases

Lol this. At the end of the day, he was just a tubby scientist who has 4 tentacles. Even throwing that car at Peter should have ripped his spine out.
Spider-Man not killing or knocking out Doc Ock is a clear oversight by the writers. They underestimated Spider-Man's immense strength relative to human flesh and bone. This is commonly referred to as PIS and should be dismissed in debates.
Similarly, Spider-Man failed to knock out or kill Bone Saw in the cage match despite repeatedly kicking him. However, it's obvious that both antagonists - Doc Ock and Bone Saw - would be easily incapacitated by something as simple as a bullet.
Doc Ock is formidable primarily due to the strength and durability of his tentacles. They can be used for both offensive and defense. However, at his core, he's essentially a glass cannon - highly dangerous offensively but physically vulnerable.

His spine being able to handle the forces dished out by lifting/throwing things should also be Pis, no?

That's Spider-Man holding back, as he's not a murderer.
Ock tanked getting hit by a desk (thrown by Spider-man) with enough force to send him flying for dozens of metres into a taxi, which nearly tipped over. That would have killed anyone. Falling hundreds of feet onto a moving train should have killed him too, but he tanked it. I have no doubt that Peter held back against him, but he's been shown to one shot regular humans before, so Ock is clearly above human level for some reason.
This attack did more damage to him:
