Answer:

#1, #2, #4, and #6 are the answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

#2, #4, and #6 have something to do with radioactivity which is mostly categorized in nuclear reactions, #3 and #5 are partly categorized in thermal reactions while a chemical plant explosion is almost categorized as a chemical bomb; Chemical explosions may be either decomposition or combination reactions. Decomposition reactions occur in materials such as trinitrotoluene (TNT) and nitroglycerine. Combination reactions require that two or more components react together exothermically to produce hot gases. Some examples are ammonium nitrate and fuel oil (ANFO), and gunpowder (potassium nitrate, carbon, and sulfur). In conclusion, #1, #2, #4 and #6 are the answers.
