First of all there are heavy and unstable metals in the nuclear bomb. These are mainly uranium, polonium, plutonium etc.These are then bombarded with hydrogen atoms (tritium and deuterium) with the help of atom guns (or nuclear guns). This displaces the nucleus of the metals and it starts to divide. The more it divides, more energy is formed (as the properties of the atom changes).
