A nuclear bomb contains two parts. The Uranium and Hydrogen. When on first impact the hydrogen canister explodes trigering a reaction happening in the uranium which explodes at heats of over 3000 Degree Celcius.
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.
The biggest nuclear weapon ever tested was the Tsar Bomba, a hydrogen bomb detonated by the Soviet Union in 1961. It had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated.
A nuclear weapon is one of the most powerful weapons in existence, so it is difficult to say if there is a specific weapon that is definitively stronger. However, some may argue that certain future technologies, such as antimatter weapons or advanced cyber warfare capabilities, could potentially surpass the destructive power of a nuclear weapon.
The amount of radiation produced by a nuclear weapon can vary depending on its size and yield. However, a single detonation of a nuclear weapon can produce tens of thousands to millions of rads within the immediate vicinity of ground zero. This level of radiation exposure can be lethal to humans and cause widespread health effects.
Surface bursts create craters, lots of fallout, and damage/destroy fortified underground structures; but the total area of surface damage is less than that of air bursts of similar yield because the blast wave is partially contained.
To create the first nuclear weapon.
The meaning of the word nuclear weapon, is a weapon that has a nuclear warhead on it.
A nuclear weapon requires enriched uranium or plutonium as the fissile material to sustain a chain reaction and create a nuclear explosion. Additionally, a conventional chemical explosive is needed to trigger the nuclear reaction.
This nuclear weapon is called an atomic bomb or a nuclear bomb
Nuclear weapon detonations
If by "bomb" you mean a conventional explosive weapon, then the nuclear weapon is more powerful.
