No. The explosion of a firecracker is a chemicalexplosion. Matter is converted from one form to another; molecules, that is, the atoms in the molecules, rearrange themselves releasing energy. That's the blast and the light. But the total mass of the substances involved is carried over into the combustion byproducts. No mass is lost. Chemistry does not change the involved mass in a reaction. Only nuclear reactions cause change in mass. In chemical reactions, energy can be released or absorbed according to the reaction and the constituent substances involved.
What else can I help you with?
When a firecracker explodes mass is lost true or false?
Yes and no. Yes because most of the mass isn't a firecracker anymore, and no because mass is never lost or gained in a chemical reaction, which is what a firecracker explosion is. If you have a nuclear powered firecracker, however, it would be a definite yes because some mass would be converted into energy.
When a fire cracker explodes matter is lost?
No matter is lost when a firecracker explodes. When the gunpowder inside ignites, it turns rapidly into gases and powder residue. The paper shell is either burned or fragmented into fine particles.
What types of energy is being released when a firecraker explodes?
When a firecracker explodes, chemical energy stored in the fireworks' gunpowder is rapidly converted into thermal (heat) and light energy. The gunpowder undergoes a rapid combustion reaction, releasing energy in the form of heat and light as the firecracker explodes.
What is inside a firecracker?
A firecracker typically contains gunpowder, a fuse, and a casing made of paper or cardboard. When the fuse is ignited, the gunpowder inside explodes, creating the loud noise and sparks that characterize a firecracker.
What is firecracker?
Its a shrimp that when you come near it and it gets scared it explodes into loads od different coulers to scare you away
What substance is formed when a firecracker explodes?
When a firecracker explodes, it releases gases such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor, along with producing light, heat, and sound. The colorful display often seen is due to the presence of metal salts or other chemical compounds that burn and emit colorful light.

When a firecracker explodes stored chemical energy turns into sound and light energy. what other type of energy is also realeased?
When a firecracker explodes, in addition to sound and light energy, heat energy is also released. This is because the chemical reaction that occurs during the explosion generates heat, which is then given off as thermal energy.
When a firecracker explodes stored chemical energy turns into sound and light energy What other energy is also released during this transformation?
Heat and pressure
Which energy transformation takes place when a firecracker explodes?
Chemical energy in the gunpowder is transformed into thermal, light, and sound energy when a firecracker explodes. The chemical energy is released as heat and light from the rapid combustion of the gunpowder, creating the explosion and producing sound waves.
Is a firecracker explode a chemical or physical change?
Although the firecracker gets its energy from a chemical reaction, most of the damage it does is physical from the shockwave coming from it as it explodes. Very near the explosion there will also be some chemical damage as the burning explosive can burn some its surroundings - and burns are a type of chemical damage.
How come when a firecracker explodes you see it before you hear it?
I assume you mean that the firecracker is some distance away. Sound is very slow compared to light. Sound travels at 300 meters per second, light travels at 300,000,000 meters per second. So you see it long before you hear it.
