Enumerated/Delegated Powers - Powers given only to the federal government. Reserved Powers - Powers reserved for state governments only. Concurrent Powers - Powers shared between the state and federal governments. Implied Powers - Powers that Congress has that ARE NOT specifically listed in the Constitution. Expressed Powers (almost like Enumerated/Delegated) - Powers of Congress that ARE specifically listed in the Constitution.
The federal government has certain express powers. These are powers included in the Constitution. These powers include the right to levy taxes, declare war, and regulate interstate and foreign commerce and exchange.
Constitution law refers to the body of laws that interpret and apply a country's constitution. The constitution, on the other hand, is the fundamental law of a country that outlines the structure of the government, sets out the rights of citizens, and defines the powers of the government. In short, constitution law deals with the interpretation and application of the constitution.
The reserved powers are powers not specifically delegated to the federal government nor specifically denied to the states which the states are free to exercise within their appropriate spheres of influence.
State governments have powers in areas such as education, public health, transportation, and intrastate commerce. They also have the authority to regulate land use, conduct state elections, and establish local governments. These powers are outlined in the Tenth Amendment to the US Constitution, which reserves all powers not specifically granted to the federal government to the states.
The Constitution provides a framework for separation of powers among the three branches of government (executive, legislative, judicial), establishes the powers of each branch, delineates their responsibilities, and outlines the rights of individuals. It leaves room for interpretation and flexibility in implementation, allowing for future adaptations as needed.

The powers of the US Constitution were clearly "spelled out" for the most part. In order to satisfy statesmen that the Federal government would not have overwhelming power, the Constitution specifies that all powers not given to the Federal government belonged to the States. That is how power is divided between the States and the Federal government.
