Chemical energy.
An unlit match contains chemical potential energy stored in the matchstick, specifically in the match head which contains chemicals that can undergo a chemical reaction (combustion) when ignited.
A match stick typically contains potential energy in the form of chemical energy stored in the match head and the striking surface. When the match is struck, this potential energy is converted into thermal energy and light as the match ignites and burns.
A burning match produces thermal energy, in the form of heat and light, due to the combustion reaction of the match head with oxygen in the air.
Chemical energy in the match is converted to thermal energy, which produces heat to ignite the candle.
Lighting a match involves the conversion of chemical energy stored in the match head into thermal energy due to the friction when striking it against the matchbox. This thermal energy then further ignites the match head, leading to the release of light energy in the form of a flame.

Light
A match burning is an example of chemical energy transitioning to light and heat energy.
Chemical energy in the match is converted to thermal energy, which produces heat to ignite the candle.
The energy in a matchstick before it is burned is chemical potential energy stored in the match head. When the match is struck and burned, this chemical potential energy is converted into thermal energy in the form of heat and light.

Nuclear. Hence Nuclear bombs. Which shows they contain a LOT of energy. A LOT.
