The isotope 131I is a fission product of uranium and plutonium.
Uranium boiling point is 4 131 0C.
The boiling point of uranium is 4 131 0C.
Yes, uranium melting point is 1132,2 0C.The boiling point is 4 131 0C.
Both iodine-129 and iodine-131 are produced by the fission of uranium atoms during operation of nuclear reactors and by plutonium (or uranium) in the detonation of nuclear weapons. US EPA Link below.
Radioisotpes are used to treat the thyroid, especially for those who have hyperthyroidism or Graves' disease. Radioiodine is swallowed by a patient and then it is absorbed by the thyroid. The radioiodine eventually kills thyroid cells. This helps patients with an overactive thyroid by slowing down the production of thyroid hormones.
Iodine-131 is a radioactive isotope of iodine with 53 protons and 78 neutrons in its nucleus. It decays by beta decay, emitting beta particles and transforming into xenon-131.
Uranium-223 is an artificial isotope of uranium; some characteristics are: - number of neutrons: 131 - type of decay: alfa, to 219Th - atomic mass: 219,02774(8) - half life: probable 21 microseconds
Uranium begins to evaporate at temperatures above 3,200°C (5,792°F). At this temperature, uranium atoms gain enough energy to break free from the solid phase and transition into a gaseous state.
At room temperature uranium is a solid metal, not hot; the melting point of uranium is 1 132,2 0C.
Some characteristics of uranium are:- uranium is a natural metal- uranium is radioactive with 3 natural isotopes- the atomic weight of uranium is 238,02891(3)- the atomic number is 92- the density of uranium is 19,1 g/cm3- the melting point of uranium is 1 132,2 0C- the boiling point of uranium i1 4 131 0C- the crystalline structure of uranium is orthorombic- uranium is paramagnetic- the thermal conductivity is 142 W/m.K- the electrical resistivity is 47,7 nanoohm.meteretc.
- uranium is radioactive- uranium has 3 natural isotopes and many artificial isotopes- uranium is a solid metal- uranium is dense; 19,1 g/cm3- the atomic weight is 238,02891(3)- the atomic number is 92- the melting point is 1 0132,2 0C- the boiling point is 4 131 0C- uranium is paramagnetic- the covalent radius of uranium atom is 196+/-7 pm- the crystalline structure is orthorombic- uranium is used in nuclear fuels for nuclear reactors- depleted uranium can be used for armors and ammunition- uranium can be used in atomic bombs- etc.
Many radioactive isotopes are more radioactive than the naturally occurring uranium isotopes:All fission product isotopes are more radioactive (e.g. iodine-131, strontium-90)Most radioactive isotopes in the uranium --> lead decay chain are more radioactive (e.g. radium, radon, polonium)Plutonium is more radioactiveTritium is more radioactiveCarbon-14 is more radioactiveArtificially produced uranium isotopes are more radioactive (e.g. uranium-233, uranium-236)etc.
