It really depends on the type of bomb. The most common bombs, however, use a chemical reaction - so chemical energy is converted into heat, light, and sound.

What kind of energy conversions takes place in a nuclear bomb explosion?
Nuclear mass --> energy conversion is most of it. Conventional explosives start it.
Why is the explosion from a atomic bomb so big?
Because the energy used/created is that which comes from the conversion of mass into energy, following Einstein's equation E=MC2.
What is a comparison of the amount of energy before conversion with the amount of useful energy after conversion?
Energy Efficiency
When is mass converted into energy?
Mass and energy are equivalent, so there are exchanges of between mass and energy any time there is a change in motion (kinetic energy). But Atomic energy is the most familiar conversion of mass into energy. The explosion of an nuclear bomb, or the energy generated by a nuclear reactor are consequences of conversion of mass into energy. Energy from combustion is not primarily derived from mass/energy conversion, but from exothermic chemical reactions. In fact, any such exchange between mass and energy would operate in the other direction, as gasses gain mass as they are put into motion (increased kinetic energy=increased mass). But any such gain is so tiny as to be meaningless.
Which energy conversion occurs in a battery-powered flashlight?
The conversion is from chemical energy to electricity to light energy.

What energy changes in an atom bomb?
Atomic bomb is a very danger bomb. IT emits the nucleus energy.
A comparison of amount of energy before a conversion with the amount of useful energy after a conversion?
Usually, the amount of useful energy after a conversion will be less than the original energy. In no case can it be more.Usually, the amount of useful energy after a conversion will be less than the original energy.
