I am not an expert in this subject, but the explosion of dynamite is a chemical change because something new is being produced. For example, if you burn a piece of paper, that is a chemical change because it turns into ash. I guess the same applies to the explosion of dynamite. By the way, this is stated in really simple terms. If you would like to learn more, perhaps you should do some research. I hope I was of some help! I did try my best. Again, this is my first year taking Chemistry.
