How big is the largest nuclear bomb?
The largest nuclear bomb ever detonated was the Soviet Union's Tsar Bomba in 1961, which had a yield of 50 megatons. It was the most powerful nuclear weapon ever created and tested.
How many more times can a nuclear explosions be more powerful than the largest conventional weapon?
theoretically the yield of nuclear weapons is unlimited.
How does the energy released by an earthquake compare to the energy of a nuclear weapon?
* Earthquake Richter 5.0 = 32 kilotons nuclear weapon, like was used at Nagasaki * Earthquake Richter 6.0 = 1 megaton nuclear weapon * Earthquake Richter 7.0 = 32 megaton nuclear weapon * Earthquake Richter 7.1 = 50 megaton nuclear weapon, Tsar Bomba, the largest nuclear weapon ever tested * Earthquake Richter 8.0 = 1 gigaton nuclear weapon, much larger than anything ever made
What is the blast radius of the largest nuclear weapon?
The largest nuclear weapon ever tested, the Tsar Bomba by the Soviet Union in 1961, had a blast radius of over 7 miles. The fireball created by the explosion measured around 2 miles in diameter and the shockwave was felt over 400 miles away.

Can a nuclear reactor be used as a nuclear weapon?
No. LLNL even tested several Uranium-Hydride bombs in the 1950s. Even though their computer models said the devices should explode, none gave a nuclear yield. One could use the waste from the reactor as a Radiological Weapon, but the reactor itself is not useful as a weapon.
How much more powerful can a NUCLEAR EXPLOSION THAN THE LARGEST CONVENTIONAL WEAPON?
A nuclear explosion can be millions of times more powerful than the largest conventional weapon. For instance, the largest conventional bomb, the GBU-43/B MOAB, has a yield of about 11 tons of TNT, while the most powerful nuclear bomb ever tested, the Tsar Bomba, had a yield of approximately 50 megatons of TNT. This means a nuclear explosion can surpass conventional weapons in destructive capability by a factor of thousands to millions, depending on the specific devices being compared.
