When dynamite explodes is it an example of chemical change?

Yes, when dynamite explodes, it is an example of a chemical change. The chemical bonds within the dynamite molecules are broken and reformed during the explosion, resulting in the release of energy and the formation of new chemical compounds.


Was the Hiroshima bombing a physical or chemical change?

At Hiroshima, the bomb itself was a nuclear weapon. The operative word there is nuclear. Nuclear changes brought about a massive release of that nuclear energy. The nuclear energy was converted into mechanical and electromagnetic energy, which resulted in the creation of a huge amount of thermal energy.The mechanical energy was carried outward in the blast wave. The combination of these things caused both physical and chemical changes, the latter owing to the electromagnetic and thermal (heat) energy.


Why does an atomic bomb release more energy than a conventional chemical bomb?

An atomic bomb releases more energy than a conventional chemical bomb because the atomic bomb releases binding, or Nuclear Strong Force, energy while the conventional bomb releases chemical energy, and there is far more binding energy (hundreds and thousands of times) than there is chemical energy from the same mass of material.


What is a chemical bomb made out of?

A chemical bomb is typically made of toxic chemical agents, such as nerve agents (e.g., sarin or VX) or blister agents (e.g., mustard gas), that are designed to incapacitate or kill. These agents are often mixed with a dispersal mechanism, such as an explosive charge or aerosolizer, to spread the chemicals over a wide area upon detonation. Additionally, the bomb may include stabilizers and propellants to ensure effective delivery and performance.
