Pure Uranium is radioactive; thus harmful. Inside a nuclear reactor, atoms get split. When the Uranium atom is split, it releases a huge amount of energy. This energy is called nuclear energy. Also the normal Uranium is not used in reactors. The Uranium that is used is enhanced; it is an isotope of Uranium. Uranium-237 and Uranium-238 are used in nuclear reactors.
I hope this answer was useful for you.
Uranium dioxide (UO2) is more suitable as nuclear fuel for commercial nuclear reactors than uranium metal.
Uranium is a nuclear fuel.
Uranium is used as nuclear fuel in nuclear reactors.
Uranium may suffer nuclear reactions, nuclear fission, nuclear decay.
Yes, uranium is a nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors. Also uranium can be used in nuclear weapons.
Uranium is very efficient as nuclear fuel or nuclear weapon. Uranium is an alternative to fossil fuels.
Uranium is now the most important nuclear fuel for nuclear power plants.
Uranium is not a fossil fuel; uranium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors.
Uranium is used as nuclear fuel in nuclear power reactors.
Because uranium is very important for nuclear energy and nuclear weapons.
The majority of nuclear reactors use uranium as nuclear fuel.
Nuclear energy, because uranium is a nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors.
