The difference between nuclear and atomic bombs has to do with the fuel. Atomic bombs use only plutonium or uranium. Nuclear bombs use, in addition to plutonium or uranium, hydrogen. That is what makes them nuclear, unlike President Bush's mispronunciation: nucular.tom bombs work by the principle of atomic fission (splitting large atomic nuclei), while hydrogen bombs work by atomic fusion (combining small atomic nuclei). The hydrogen bomb is hundreds or thousands of times more powerful than the atom bomb.
