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.
What is the biggest nuclear weapon?

How many rads does a nuclear weapon produce?
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.
Could a nuclear weapon blow up a continent?

What are the four DOD nuclear weapon safety standards?
The four Department of Defense (DOD) nuclear weapon safety standards focus on preventing nuclear detonation, unauthorized launch, and accidental nuclear detonation. These standards require that nuclear weapons must always be safe from accidents, must be secure from unauthorized access, must ensure that no nuclear detonation occurs without proper authorization, and must maintain reliable performance under all conditions. These principles are fundamental to ensuring the safe handling, storage, and deployment of nuclear weapons.
