How much money is spent on firework displays in Great Britain in a year?
Firstly, you should consider that a minor firework display will cost approx. between £4000 and £8000 pounds. A reasonable council run display on 5th November is likely to have around spent £20,000 on fireworks (plus more on other costs such as security). A large, full scale display will set you back well over £100,000. Therefore, assuming that each council has at least 1 display a year (multiply 160+ unitary councils @ £20,000 = £3.2 million) and there will be many minor events across the UK (perhaps 300 x £6000 = £1.8 million) and numerous large scale events such as New Year etc (e.g. 100 @ £100,000 = £10 million). Then the total cost spent on fireworks within the UK each year is around £15 million.

Can a Jehovah's Witness go to watch fireworks?
Jehovah's Witnesses have very few 'hard-fast' rules. If you were to see a list of our "do's and don'ts" it would read similar to what is known as the 10 commandments, such as 'don't steal,' don't commit adultry,' etc. Most of the ideals that guide a typical JW are based on what we call "principles." Bible knwledge on certain matters guides what a JW will decide for themselves what they will do under certain conditions. On the matter of fireworks, this could be a situation where a JW will weigh matters to make a decision. There is nothing wrong with fireworks in themselves. In fact, a JW may even purchase fireworks to set them off on their own, provided that it is legal in the area in which they are. My wife and I are both Jehovah's Witnesses. She loves fireworks, I couldn't care less about them. It's a matter of preference. Most fireworks displays are done in celebration of a holiday that we do not celebrate, such as Fourth of July or New Years. If the JW in question feels that to observe the fireworks show is tantamount to engaging in the celebration, then he will likely make a decision based on his conscience not to see the fireworks show. However, if he feels that to do so would not be taking part in the celebration, then he may choose therwise. It boils down to his or her conscience or that of the parent if it is a Jehovah's Witness child.

What evidence of a chemical reaction might you see when burning a match?
Volatile compounds in the wood undergo combustion, or reaction with oxygen, forming H20 and CO2 gases. Because of the makeup of wood being mostly carbon-based compounds, this reaction leaves behind soot and charcoal.
Some common parts of fireworks include the shell (outer casing that contains the explosive material), fuse (ignites the fireworks), and stars (particles that create colored effects when ignited). Other components may include lift charges (propels the firework into the air) and a bursting charge (explodes the shell to release the effects).
What element is found in a fireworks fuel?
In a house - Hydrogen. It gives off heat when burnt and has non-toxic products of combustion (water vapour). It doesn't damage the atmosphere when used as a fuel as no carbon dioxide is produced. Out of doors - carbon. Readily available. Non-toxic products of combustion.
