An atom bomb is the common name for a nuclear weapon that creates an explosion with a huge amount of energy release compared to conventional explosives like dynamite.
This explosion comes from the actual splitting of an atom or the fusion of two atoms together.

Atom bomb = hydrogen bomb.
Hygrogen atom have 1 neutron, 1proton and 1 electron. When neutron and proton are forced apart, a tremendous energy is released. The proton and neutron hit other atoms and atoms are pushed apart. So this goes at a fate of exponential and it causes explosion.
