The chemical reaction causes heat, which causes the material to expand and result in an explosion.
Dynamite's explosive power comes from the nitroglycerin inside of it, which is very sensitive to shock. If caught inside of an explosion, dynamite would go off.
In any energy transformation energy is preserved.
A change from one form of energy into another is called energy transformation.
Energy transformation
Mechanical energy (Blast waves) and thermal energy (Heat)
The chemical reaction causes heat, which causes the material to expand and result in an explosion.

thermal enery cause it produces heat *and light and sound
The explosion was heart for many miles. Dynamite can cause an explosion.
The explosion occurred when he accidentally set off the dynamite.
Explosion is a chemical phenomenon.
No. No matter is converted to energy in a dynamite explosion, nor very likely in any explosion or other process that you have ever seen. "Dynamite", or any other "high explosive", including gasoline and rocket fuel, simply undergoes a chemical process that produces an awful lot of hot gas in a very short time, resulting in a lot of gas at very high pressure that needs to go somewhere, and allows nothing to stand in its way.
TNT (the dynamite that caused the explosion) pop (the sound a small explosion might make)
Nitroglycerin has a very high chemical energy which is released quickly in an explosion, by chemical decomposition with evolved gases.
There Is a tenth (1/10) of a stick of dynamite in an M-80. It also has an outward explosion force of 50 lbs./PCI of explosion force.
