What is the naturally occurring actinide that is used in nuclear reactors?
We look to the naturally occurring element uranium as a nuclear fuel.
What is the use of hafnium in nuclear reactors?
Hafnium can be used as a material for control rods in nuclear reactors. This element has a high neutron absorption cross section, and it appears as a big target for neurtons.
What kind of element is uranium?
Uranium is a natural chemical element, metal, solid, toxic, radioactive, reactive, very dense, used as fuel in nuclear reactors, used in nuclear bombs, used in alloys for tankks armors, etc.
What element is converted to plutonium to make the first nuclear reactors?
