A release of energy caused by a species reverting to its lowest state of energy following basic entropy/second law of thermodynamics.

An explosion can be anything? Two people on the ground with rollerskates on push off on each other. Scientifically, that is an explosion.

A reaction when a powder or substance gets so much presure on it that the molucules separate with great force and distructive power. Is that coming near an answer? Check google for a more specific answer

An explosion is a rapid increase in volume and release of energy in an extreme manner, usually with the generation of high temperatures and the release of gases. An explosion creates a shock wave. If the shock wave is a supersonic detonation, then the source of the blast is called a "high explosive". Subsonic shock waves are created by low explosives through the slower burning process known as deflagration. Oh yeah, im so good.
