Such energy is called nuclear energy. There are basically two different variations on this principle. One, light atoms can be combined into heavier atoms (up to a certain point - somewhere around iron). This is known as fusion. The other is that heavy atoms (heavier than iron) can split into lighter atoms.
When it comes to characteristics of atoms, all of them have one nucleus and electrons that circulate in orbits around the nucleus. The nucleus has protons and neutrons.
Nuclear energy is the term for energy that comes from inside the nucleus of an atom. This energy can be released through processes such as nuclear fission or nuclear fusion.
Nuclear energy comes from the binding energy released when we change the state of atoms. Binding energy holds the universe together and it is present in every atom.
Chemical energy comes from the breaking or forming of chemical bonds in molecules. When bonds break, energy is released, and when bonds form, energy is absorbed. This energy comes from the arrangement of atoms and their interactions within a molecule.

Yes, but more specifically, the atoms that make up the water molecule have nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is what hold the atoms together. It holds the nuetrons and protons together within the nucleus of the atom. So anything that has nuetrons and protons has nuclear energy.
Nuclear energy comes from changes in an atom's nucleus, such as nuclear fission or fusion reactions. These processes release large amounts of energy in the form of heat and radiation.
Nuclear power relies on the process of nuclear fission, where an atom's nucleus is split, releasing a large amount of energy. This energy is used to generate heat, which in turn produces steam to drive turbines connected to a generator that produces electricity. The use of nuclear reactions differentiates nuclear power from traditional forms of energy production.
The energy in a nuclear reactor comes from the process of nuclear fission. This process involves splitting atoms of uranium or plutonium, which releases a large amount of heat energy. This heat is then used to generate steam, which drives turbines connected to generators to produce electricity.
