The fissile fuel in the first 3 bombs was:
Take your pick.
either uranium or plutonium may be used in fission bombs, hydrogen and/or lithium may be used in fusion bombs.
An element with atomic number 7 (nitrogen) can make a maximum of 3 covalent bonds, while an element with atomic number 16 (sulfur) can make a maximum of 2 covalent bonds. Therefore, when they combine, they can form a total of 5 covalent bonds between them.
Hydrogen is the lightest element, with an atomic number of 1. Its low atomic mass and simple structure make it the lightest element in the periodic table.
Other elements that can be used to make atomic or thermonuclear bombs include beryllium, lithium, and thorium. These elements are used in the production of certain types of nuclear weapons to enhance their yield and efficiency.
Uranium is the element commonly used to generate electricity in nuclear power plants and as the primary material for nuclear bombs. It undergoes nuclear reactions such as fission to release large amounts of energy.
Both uranium and plutonium were used extensively to make the first two atomic bombs, dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, respectively.
Pakistan is the first and still the only Muslim country to make atomic bombs.
Germany and United States where working to make them work. United States got it first and used first on Japan over the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The US. The USSR stole our plans to make their first bombs.
The weapon was developed by the Manhattan Project during World War II. It derived its explosive power from the nuclear fission of uranium 235.
No they do not.

Uranium and plutonium.
Apparently it was plutonium which I think is element 295.Plutonium is element 94.Plutonium was used in the Gadget at Trinity.Uranium was used in the first bomb dropped on Japan the Little Boy at Hiroshima.Plutonium was used in the second bomb dropped on Japan the Fatman at Nagasaki.
The US made atomic bombs from 1945 to 1992.
either uranium or plutonium may be used in fission bombs, hydrogen and/or lithium may be used in fusion bombs.
As of august 1945 the US had the industrial capacity to make 3 atomic bombs a month. In november 1945 this would increase to 7 atomic bombs a month. As Japan surrendered before this, the US scaled back production and had only made 9 atomic bombs by the end of Operation Crossroads in the summer of 1946, five of which had been detonated.
