What elements besides uranium plutonium and hydrogen can be used to make atomic or thermonuclear bombs?
Ex.: neptunium, deuterium (isotope of H)
Elements in atomic bomb?
Atomic bombs contain uranium (highly enriched in the isotope 235U) or plutonium (a very specific isotopic composition).
What elements are used for bombs?
Uranium and Plutonium
Which two elements were used to produce the atomic bombs?
The key elements to making fission bombs are: Uranium and Plutonium. The specific isotopes of interest are: Uranium-233, Uranium-235, and Plutonium-239. But many other elements are needed to make a functional bomb. As a very rough guess, about a quarter of the elements on the periodic table are needed somewhere in the bomb, roughly 23 different elements in total.
