Absolutely, Edward Teller developed plans that were never built for a 10GTon h-bomb.
The Tsar Bomba itself was designed for 100MTon yield but then only tested with enough fuel in the casing for roughly 50MTon yield. Why test at full yield when all you really need to prove is capability of ignition.

Why did Edward Teller make the hydrogen bomb?
He created it to be more powerful than the atomic, and fission bomb.
Is a atom bomb more powerful than a h-bomb?
No the atom bomb is not more powerful then the H-bomb
Which is most powerful the hydrogen bomb the atom bomb or the uranium bomb?
The 'uranium bomb' is an A-bomb and is a first generation nuclear weapon. The hydrogen bomb or H-bomb is a 2nd generation nuclear weapon and generally many times more powerful. 'H-bomb' can also refer to 3rd generation nuclear weapons that have an additional mass off uranium to provide further fuel, triggered by the 2nd generation fusion reaction; these are the most powerful. But recent studies show that the H-Bomb has more mass, therefore more energy, and therefore has more energy. So the H-bomb is more powerful.
Which is most powerful a nuke an atomic bomb or a hydrogen bomb?
An H-Bomb is 1000 times stronger than an atomic bomb. Atomic explosions are based on splitting atoms and is a fission explosion or fission bomb. The Hydrogen bomb (also called H-Bomb) is a Fusion reaction where atoms are forced together. Atomic bombs were used in World War II, Hydrogen bombs have been tested, but not used in war.
What weapon was developed during the cold war that was more powerful than the atomic bomb?
H-bomb
What was the bomb 1000 times more powerful than the atomic bomb?
The bomb that was 1000 times more powerful than the atomic bomb is often referred to as the Tsar Bomba. It was a hydrogen bomb developed by the Soviet Union and tested on October 30, 1961. The Tsar Bomba had a yield of approximately 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated.
Are atom bombs THE most dangerous bombs?
All bombs are dangerous, but the atom bomb is certainly one of the most devastating. The only type of bomb thus far created that is more powerful than an atom bomb is a hydrogen bomb, which is the type of nuclear bomb that uses fusion instead of just fission. The Tsar Bomba, which is the single most powerful deviceever used, let alone bomb, is an example of a hydrogen bomb. Its yield was rated at a staggering 56 megatons of force. I've added a link below if you'd like more information.

No the atom bomb is not more powerful then the H-bomb
What is the largest bomb ever?
The biggest bomb that was ever detonated was the Tsar Bomba. It was 50 megatons which is 500,000 kilotons which is 50 million tons of TNT. It was detonated just to show other countrys how advanced Russia was. There is a mock bomb stored in Chelyabinsk-70 for display. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsar_Bomba For more information.
Is an bomb or a nuclear weapon more powerful?
If by "bomb" you mean a conventional explosive weapon, then the nuclear weapon is more powerful.
Why is a hydrogen bomb more devestating than an atomic bomb?
More powerful explosion.
What is more powerful than a bullet?
A bomb is more powerful than a bullet its obvious
What is more powerful than a hydrogen bomb?
Currently, that is about it. If large amounts on anti-matter ever become available, that COULD create a more powerful bomb.
Which is most powerful the hydrogen bomb the atom bomb or the uranium bomb?
The 'uranium bomb' is an A-bomb and is a first generation nuclear weapon. The hydrogen bomb or H-bomb is a 2nd generation nuclear weapon and generally many times more powerful.

Which is more powerful napalm bomb or nuclear bomb?
Nuclear. Napalm is simply gelled gasoline fire bomb.
Is the hydrogen bomb is more destructive than the atom bomb and why?
yes its about 70 - 400 times more powerful..
