There are many atoms used in an atomic bomb for various purposes.

  • Iron and carbon, lus some others depending on preference, make up the steel casing;
  • silicon and oxygen atoms make up the computer hardware chips;
  • copper makes up the wiring in the bomb;
  • various type of atoms make up the other tools used by the bomb;
  • carbon, nitrogen and oxygen make up the conventional explosive;
  • while plutonium and uranium atoms are used as fissionable material and hydrogen atoms as fusion material.
