I bought this dirt jumper haro bike off Facebook market place for $200 . Im a beginner bmxer but we have a few pump tracks in my area and ive taken a mtb too and it wasnt very fun so I wanted something made for that. I found this haro bike. 200$ i paid for it. It was dark when I bought it so when I got home I only rode it around my block. About 10 mins into the ride the chain snapped. I did notice the chain was bit bouncy when I bought it but didnt think anything of it. For reference im 6'1 male about 170 lbs. I am the main rider of the bike. Is it as easy as a new chain?

I would replace the chain use some proper chain lube also check both sprockets for a bent or chewed tooth. It could have just been improperly pressed and due to being abit dry the link popped back out.
