No. Fireworks rely on chemical rather than nuclear energy. They are driven by an oxidation-reduction reaction. Fireworks were developed centuries before we discovered nuclear fission.

Do fireworks have nuclearer energy?

No, fireworks do not contain nuclear energy. They operate through chemical reactions that produce heat, light, and sound, using combustible materials like gunpowder and various metal salts for colors. Nuclear energy, on the other hand, involves reactions at the atomic level, such as fission or fusion, which are not present in the chemical processes of fireworks.
