Quarks- subatomic particles that make up nucleons
The process of combining nuclei with small masses to form a nucleus with a larger mass is called nuclear fusion. This occurs in stars where intense heat and pressure overcome the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged nuclei, allowing them to fuse together. This process releases a large amount of energy in the form of light and heat.
The atomic size of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can be determined by measuring the distance between the nuclei of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the molecule. The size is influenced by the arrangement of the atoms in the molecule and the bond lengths between them. The atomic size of hydrogen peroxide is relatively small compared to larger molecules, such as proteins or DNA.
A femtometer is a unit used to measure extremely small distances, typically on the scale of atomic nuclei. With 1 femtometer, you can measure the size of atomic nuclei or the spacing between nucleons within a nucleus. It is useful for studying particles at the subatomic level.
When the nuclei of small atoms are joined, a process called nuclear fusion occurs. Fusion releases a large amount of energy because it involves the combination of atomic nuclei to form a new, heavier nucleus. This process is what powers the sun and other stars, as well as hydrogen bombs.
With nuclear fission, a large atomic nucleus (such as a uranium nucleus) breaks apart into smaller nuclei, and energy is released. With nuclear fusion, small atomic nuclei (such as hydrogen) join to become larger nuclei, and energy is released. Fusion of hydrogen releases much more energy than any other type of either fusion or fission. Note that the dividing line between heavy nuclei and light nuclei is the iron nucleus, which is at the perfect point of nuclear stability, so that neither fusion nor fission of iron nuclei would release any energy.

FUSION
nuclear fusion
Fusion is only possible with small nuclei because larger nuclei have stronger repulsive forces between their positively charged protons, making it harder for them to come together and fuse. Small nuclei have weaker repulsive forces, allowing them to overcome this barrier and fuse together to release energy.

What about them? They are the same thing: bombs that get their energy from the atomic nucleus. However there are two kinds: fission (breaking up large nuclei into smaller ones) and fusion (joining small nuclei into larger ones). The fusion type are often called thermonuclear because it takes very high temperature to ignite the reaction (about 10 million K).
Nuclear fusion is the process of combining two small nuclei to produce heat and one larger nucleus. This process releases a large amount of energy and is the same process that powers the sun and stars.
Based on the extreme case of Hydrogen which has one proton and no neutrons for 0%, Large nuclei would have a larger percentage.
You are confused on your terminology. The terms atomicand nuclear are effectively interchangeable in the field of nuclear weapons. Both mean energy from the atomic nucleus.There are two ways to get energy from the atomic nucleusthough: fission and fusion.Fission is the splitting of large heavy nuclei into smaller lighter ones, like Uranium-235 and Plutonium-239.Fusion is the joining of small light nuclei into larger heavier ones, like Deuterium and Tritium.I hope this clarifies things.
