What are common compounds in which uranium is found?

uranyl nitrate, uranium chloride, uranium tetrafluoride, uranium hexafluoride, uranium dioxide, uranium octaoxide, uranyl acetate, uranyl sulfate, uranyl oxalate, uranium carbide, uranium nitride, uranium sulfide, uranium sulfate, uranium selenide, etc.


How can nuclear energy be captured and transformed into electrical energy?

The nuclear energy isn't so much as captured, but rather just "used". In the process, fission of uranium fuel rods causes water flowing through the reactor to be heated - eventually producing steam, which in turn spins turbines to create electricity.

What is produced when uranium nuclei is bombarded with neutrons?

This depends on a lot of things. When a neutron collides with an uranium atom, it might bounce off, cause the atom to decay, or be captured into the atom. But which it does depends on the isotope of the atom, the temperature of the atom, and the velocity of the neutron. My understanding is that it can cause any isotope of uranium to decay, and certainly it can bounce off any, but it can only be captured by U233, U234, or U235; the other isotopes of uranium, U236, and U238, will not capture neutrons. The interactions of various isotopes of different temperatures with neutrons of different velocities is complicated, and no simple rule about it can be stated.

Are there different types of uranium?

Uranium is a chemical element with three natural isotopes (234, 235, 238). The natural uranium has cca. 0,72 % uranium-235; uranium with a concentration of uranium-235 under 0,72 % is called depleted uranium; uranium with a concentration of uranium -235 above 0,72 % is called enriched uranium. Uranium in nuclear power and research reactors is used as metal, aloys, uranium dioxide, uranium carbides, uranium silicides, etc.


What is cold uranium?

Cold uranium is unirradiated uranium.


How is uranium delivered?

What is differentiation enriched uranium?

Enriched uranium is an uranium with more than 0,7 % uranium 235.
