Is called a 7 megaton burst
A nuclear power station can not create a nuclear explosion. What CAN happen is that hydrogen could build up inside of the containment dome and if the build up becomes too intense, it can cause a hydrogen explosion, like the one in Japan recently. This explosion is dangerous only if you are close to it and are hit by the concussion or by the debris that is flying from the explosion. If this explosion is too large, it can damage the containment dome surrounding the reactor and this, in turn, releases some radioactive gases.
A neutron bomb is a form of nuclear weapon. It explodes in several steps. In the first step, control circuits fire electronic blasting caps cause conventional explosives to detonate. They are shaped in such as way that the explosion crushes a ball of nuclear material (mainly plutonium) causing that to produce nuclear fission (an atomic explosion). THAT serves as the trigger to a nuclear fusion explosion- (similar to the hydrogen bomb). This releases heat, blast, and neutrons.
No such explosion ever happened.
Chemical energy- to begin the explosion- and nuclear energy- the main explosion.

The nuclear fusion uses Hydrogen to produce Helium. The fusion also releases a lot of energy, which is what causes the explosion.
4Al(s)+3O2(s) - > 2Al2O3(s)
nuclear explosion?
Because it releases much more energy in a much shorter time than chemical explosives can.

When and what explosion? One of the nuclear test shots. If so which?Remember Chernobyl was not a nuclear explosion, it was a steam explosion and graphite fire.
First of all, EMPs don't really explode like a nuclear bomb. It releases alot of energy like a nuclear bomb. EMP's do not affect the body... that much.

The only nuclear explosions in Japan were the two in WW2, on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.However I believe you meant the Japanese nuclear reactorexplosion, which was not a nuclear explosion it was either a steam explosion and/or a hydrogen/oxygen chemical explosion. That occurred at Fukushima.
no
a nuclear explosion
