Yes, uranium is a radioactive element.
Yes, uranium is a radioactive metal.
Yes. Uranium is a radioactive metal
Yes, raw uranium is radioactive.
Well you could eat uranium or other or radioactive waste... But as Uranium is expensive and rare, and radioactive waste is deadly, eating radiation would result in killing you. This will not give you super powers like shown in cartoons, but it will end up with you receiving radiation poisoning.
Yes, uranium can have negative impacts on the environment. Mining and processing uranium can lead to water and soil contamination, while uranium waste poses a long-term radiation hazard. Accidental releases of radioactive material can also harm ecosystems and wildlife.
