Radiation and fallout in Hiroshima vs in the Chernobyl accident. . Hiroshima and Chernobyl both suffered a major atomic disaster, where radioactive atoms was released. Hiroshima was nuked by the uranium fissile atomic bomb, little boy with energies of 15 kilotons of TNT. Chernobyl's uranium fissile reactors produced 3,200 MW (megawatts) of thermal power, used Uranium and the reactor also blew up but due to extreme steam pressure. Why can you then live in one, but not the other?
We will cover:
How and atomic bomb works. How a nuclear reactor works. Detonation type in the air, and in the ground. Reaction mechanism: fissioning of U235. And lastly waste products; Iodine, Cesium Irradiated graphite moderators.
All these things combined are why the Chernobyl was much worse in terms of radiation.

When the Little Boy exploded at Hiroshima, it did that a bit more than a 1/4 mile up. It did release a huge amount of radioactivity, but in only a small fraction of a second. The fireball did not touch the ground. If it had, a vast amount of radioactive debris would have been created. But at Chernobyl, when the reactor split open, it released a gigantic amount of radioactive material directly onto & into the ground. And it did that over several days. That is why the amount of radiation let go at Hiroshima is nothing compared to what got out at Chernobyl.

So essentially, Nuclear Warheads wouldn't make an area completely uninhabitable for centuries due to radiation because the amount of radioactive materials in the bomb are relatively low, and the bomb is designed with the intent of burning through all of that radioactive material instantly to unleash all of the explosive energy at once, so the radiation doesn't last nearly as long (in fact, about 80% of the radioactive products in a nuclear warhead detonation would have already decayed within the 1st hour). What makes nuclear power plant disasters much worse from a long-term radiation exposure perspective is that you need a lot more fuel for it over a significantly longer period of time that isn't burned through instantly for one massive energy release like warheads. There's huge stores of radioactive material that don't get immediately used up, which is what actually allows the unhealthy radiation levels to linger for so long. Aside from the obvious hazard that is flattening an entire city, this actually makes nuclear warheads quite a bit less scary for me than I originally thought they were. My biggest fear when it came to nukes initially was the idea that the radiation would linger for multiple lifetimes and render the place where the detonation happened uninhabitable for hundreds of years unless you wanted to develop every form of cancer imaginable. Now that I know that the vast majority of the radiation from the blast would decay within hours, the city may be destroyed, but there's still the prospect of rebuilding and making the area habitable again within a significantly shorter time frame than I assumed would be the case initially.

As i was watching video this idea just came out of my mind. After hearing differences between theese two incidents,instead of making a covarage to Chernobyl,isn't it possible to put that rest material in a chain reaction like an atomic bomb to let it vaporised in air ? Ps : i'm not a engineer,scientist or etc. just a person who is sitting near you at the park who even does not care about wtf is going on around.

No, bombs require highly enriched uranium, reactors don't, so it would be impossible to turn the remains of reactor #4 into a bomb without enriching all of the damaged debris - which would be dangerous, costly and time consuming, and probably not even possible with current technology (robots, processes, etc).
