Fission bombs use fission. Fusion bombs use fusion. Although atomic bomb is usually used for fission bombs, it technically applies equally to either.
Nuclear physicists and engineers are primarily responsible for designing and creating atomic bombs. These scientists study the behavior of atomic nuclei and develop the technology needed to release the energy stored within them for destructive purposes.
Knowing the nuclear charge of an element is important as it will tell you what kind of reactions you can expect. The element with the nuclear charge of 25 is manganese.
The principle difference between them lies in how the reaction occurs, specifically how the atom is affected. Chemical reactions involve an atom's electrons while nuclear reactions involve the atom's nucleus.
To make a fission atomic bomb you just take either uranium or plutonium, which are fast-fission materials and find a way to smash the soul out of them so they can make neutrons to continue the chain reaction. You either just take some fissionable uranium, make a bullet out of one and a ball of the other, build a cannon-shaped bomb that shoots the bullet of uranium into the ball of uranium at the end of the barrel - and boom. To make the second kind, you need some plutonium. Plutonium is easy to obtain but it is extremely hard to make into a bomb, because if you shoot two masses of plutonium together like the uranium bomb style, they fission so much easier that they start reacting before they touch and blow themselves apart before anything can fission, so you will need to make a ball of plutonium crush in itself using a shock wave made by a explosion. You surround a ball of fissionable plutonium with explosive stuff. When the surrounding explosives goes boom, the shock waves made by the explosives hits the ball. This causes the plutonium to supercompress itself together - and boom.

No, they are not the same thing. An atomic bomb is a type of nuclear weapon that releases a large amount of energy through nuclear fission or fusion reactions. A nuclear missile, on the other hand, is a missile system that is capable of delivering a nuclear warhead to a target.
An atomic bomb is an explosive device that obtains its energy from the atomic nucleus. it is equally valid to call it a nuclear bomb, and it can obtain this energy through either of the processes of fission and/or fusion. There are many ways an atomic bomb can be delivered to its target: aircraft, unguided rocket, guided missile, cruise missile, torpedo, depth charge, hand carried, landmine (the target comes to it), artillery shell, jeep/tripod mounted bazooka, etc. Atomic bombs were also proposed and tested for several peaceful uses: blasting for construction (e.g. highways, railroads, canals), oil industry (e.g. natural gas extraction, oil extraction from tar sands), spacecraft propulsion (Project Orion 1958 to 1963), etc. A nuclear missile usually means a guided missile with an atomic bomb (aka warhead) as its payload, the guided missile is the means of delivering that atomic bomb to its target. However it is also possible in some circumstances to interpret nuclear missile as equivalent to nuclear rocket. A nuclear rocket uses a nuclear reactor to heat a gas (e.g. hydrogen) to propel the rocket, as usually visualized the payload of a nuclear rocket is a deep space probe of some kind (but it could just as easily be a manned spacecraft or an atomic bomb).

The atomic bomb.
It was a plutonium implosion type. So it was an atomic bomb.
Nuclear. The weapon is uranium, and the chain reaction caused by a single split will turn the whole thing to energy. E=mc^2 shows that the explosion will produce energy equivalent to the mass of the uranium, multiplied by the speed of light squared.
A nuclear warhead is a nuclear bomb designed and optimized to be carried by some kind of missile.
Nuclear weapons use nuclear fission reactions, where heavy atomic nuclei, like Uranium-235 or Plutonium-239, split into lighter nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. This energy release causes a chain reaction, leading to a powerful explosion.
The difference between atomic fission and atomic nuclear is that they both have something to do with atomic and war. Hope this helps I am kind of in a rush......Smile!
An atomic bomb puts out many kinds of energy: Heat Light Radio waves Electrical And as these energies move outward, they in turn trigger many other types of energy.
Uncontrolled nuclear fission is a chain reaction where the splitting of atomic nuclei generates an uncontrollable release of energy. This can lead to a significant amount of heat and radiation being produced, potentially resulting in a nuclear accident or explosion if not properly managed. Examples include the accidents at Chernobyl and Fukushima.
