Chemical.
An explosion is a sudden release of energy outward, causing a rapid expansion of gases. Detonation is a specific type of explosion where the energy release occurs through a supersonic shockwave. In other words, all detonations are explosions, but not all explosions are detonations.
Collision is the impact between two or more objects resulting in a transfer of energy, while explosions involve a rapid release of energy causing sudden expansion. Collisions can either be elastic (objects bounce off each other) or inelastic (objects stick together), whereas explosions typically involve a rapid transformation of materials into hot gases. Both collisions and explosions involve the transfer of energy, but explosions are usually more destructive and result in a greater release of energy.
Gamma rays are produced by high-energy processes such as nuclear reactions, supernovae explosions, or particle interactions. These processes release immense amounts of energy, causing some of it to be emitted in the form of gamma rays, which are the most energetic type of electromagnetic radiation.
It depends on the specific conditions, but generally, explosions are louder than gunshots. Explosions often release more energy and can produce higher decibel levels, especially if they involve large amounts of explosives. Gunshots, while still loud, are typically not as loud as large-scale explosions.
Not necessarily. Many of the explosions we are familiar with involve high-temperature chemical reactions, which do release light. Explosions at lower temperature, such as steam explosions, do not produce light.

Explosions are typically made of a rapid release of energy in the form of heat, light, sound, and pressure. They occur when a sudden chemical reaction or physical force causes a rapid expansion of gases. The specific materials involved can vary greatly depending on the type of explosion.
Burning flames and explosions typically occur in exothermic reactions where heat is released, such as combustion reactions. These reactions involve a rapid release of energy in the form of heat and light.
Violent explosions that release huge amounts of energy on the surface of the Sun are called solar flares. These intense bursts of radiation occur when magnetic energy that has built up in the solar atmosphere is suddenly released. Solar flares can disrupt communication and navigation systems on Earth and contribute to space weather events.
Gamma rays are produced by high-energy processes such as nuclear reactions, supernovae explosions, or particle interactions. These processes release immense amounts of energy, causing some of it to be emitted in the form of gamma rays, which are the most energetic type of electromagnetic radiation.
Explosions on the Sun, like solar flares and coronal mass ejections, can vary in size. Solar flares can release energy equivalent to millions of nuclear bombs, while coronal mass ejections can release billions of tons of solar material into space. These explosions can have various impacts on Earth's magnetosphere and technology.
because the energy is holding everything together. when they fall apart they release the energy. So as long as nothing causes them to fall apart, no explosions
Atoms do not explode; rather, nuclear reactions involving atoms can lead to nuclear explosions. In nuclear explosions, the nucleus of an atom undergoes a chain reaction that releases an immense amount of energy in the form of heat and light. This release of energy is what causes the explosion.
Very fast exothermic reactions, such as flames and explosions, are typically caused by the rapid release of energy stored in chemical bonds. This rapid release of energy generates intense heat, light, and pressure, leading to the visible phenomena we associate with flames and explosions. The speed of these reactions is often influenced by factors such as reactant concentration, temperature, and the presence of catalysts or initiators.
