What is the link between an atom and an atomic bomb?

  • an atom is the basic unit of a chemical element, it is composed of protons and neutrons in a tiny nucleus and electrons in an extended cloud around that nucleus.
  • an atomic/nuclear bomb is a type of bomb that obtains its energy from reactions occurring inside the nucleus of the atoms, instead of from reactions occurring in the extended cloud of electrons as conventional bombs do.

the fatman atomic bomb used in ww2 weighed 5 tons, without its plutonium core it is only a 5 ton blockbuster conventional bomb having a yield just under 5 tons of TNT; with the plutonium core it is an atomic bomb having a yield of 22,000 tons of TNT. this is an increase in yield of 4,400 times, by using the energy of the nucleus instead of the electrons!
