Uranium-235 is an isotope of uranium making up about 0.72% of natural uranium. Unlike the predominant isotope uranium-238 it is fissile, i.e. it can sustain fission chain reaction. It is the only fis...

Richard Feynman was responsible for calculating the amount of uranium needed to achieve critical mass. Critical mass is the amount of uranium needed to start the chain reaction.

The minimum mass of fissile material that can sustain a nuclear chain reaction is called a critical mass and depends on the density, shape, and type of fissile material, as well as the effectiveness of any surrounding material (called a reflector or tamper) ... The device contained 64.1 kg of highly enriched uranium,

In the case of Uranium-233, the critical mass is about 35 pounds (15kg). In the case of Uranium-235, the critical mass is about 115 pounds (52kg). And in the case of Plutonium-239, the critical mass is about 22 pounds (10kg). This might seem like quite a bit, but keep in mind these materials are extremely dense.
