There are 3 major isotopes of uranium: Uranium-238, 235, and 234. These numbers are the amount of neutrons in the nucleus. Since Uranium only has 92 protons, this makes these isotopes VERY neutron-heavy!
Uranium-238 is the most common in nature, followed by 235, then 234. All these are radioactive isotopes. Because there are so many neutrons in Uranium, it makes it fissile -- easy to split.
There is no uranium isotope with 234 neutrons. The questioner almost certainly meant the uranium isotope with 234 nucleons, which is a naturally occurring isotope U234 otherwise element 92, with 142 neutrons.In which case its half life would be 252,000 years.
Any isotope of uranium is specific. This notion don't exist.
Uranium-235 is a natural isotope with 143 neutrons. Uranium-231 is an artificial isotope with 139 neutrons.
Uranium-235 is the fissile isotope
Uranium 235 is 0.7 percent of natural uranium and is fissile
- After alpha disintegration the isotope uranium-238 is transformed in the isotope thorium-234. - After alpha disintegration the isotope uranium-235 is transformed in the isotope thorium-230. Platinum is a misspelling ?
all isotopes of uranium have 92 protons, that is what makes them uranium.
Uranium hasn't stable isotopes.
The most common isotope of uranium is uranium-238 with 146 neutrons.
The atomic number of uranium is 92. The number of neutrons of the isotope uranium-235 is 143.
The most common isotope of uranium is uranium-238.
A stable isotope of uranium-235 contains 143 neutrons.
