What would plutonium taste like?
Plutonium has not taste or odor.
What would happen if Pluto was made of plutonium?
Plutonium doesn't occur in nature as far as we know, but if Pluto were made of solid Plutonium, nothing would happen. Pluto is not near anything that might be affected.
If you had a six pack size of plutonium and it was in a fire what would happen?
Oxidizing of plutonium to oxides PuO and PuO2.
Where are all the elements heavier than iron formed?
They are usually first formed in supernova explosions. These would be dispersed in space and might end up in a planetary system..The heavier, radioactive, nuclei would then form their daughter elements.
Which country does the list of characteristics in the box best describe?
It would be much easier to identify the country if the characteristics, in the box, were listed. An educated guess, would be the country of Germany.
What would plutonium taste like?
Plutonium has not taste or odor.
Describe the key elements of toal quality management?
what would best describe a quality management strategy?
What is the most posionous element?
Those would be the transuranic elements, such as Plutonium, which are toxic to all life on Earth due to radioactivity and can last as such for thousands of years. The most important isotope of Plutonium is Pu-239 with a half life of 24,100 years.
What is the state of plutonium at 20 degrees?
Plutonium at 20 C would be a solid.
How would you describe elements?
An element can be described by observing its physical and chemical properties.
What would happen if Pluto was made of plutonium?
Plutonium doesn't occur in nature as far as we know, but if Pluto were made of solid Plutonium, nothing would happen. Pluto is not near anything that might be affected.
If you had a six pack size of plutonium and it was in a fire what would happen?
Oxidizing of plutonium to oxides PuO and PuO2.
What is plutonium at boiling point?
Plutonium is a radioactive metal with a boiling point of approximately 3,228 degrees Celsius (5,842 degrees Fahrenheit). At this temperature, plutonium would transition from a solid to a gaseous state. However, handling plutonium at or near its boiling point would be extremely hazardous due to its highly toxic and radioactive nature.
What class of element listed on the periodic table contain elements that are poor conductors of heat and electric current?
It would be nonmetals.
Which of the following elements is most similar in behavior to calcium?
I don't see any elements listed... but the elements that are most similar to calcium in behavior would be those directly above or below it; Mg (Magnesium) and Sr (Strontium).
How little plutonium can kill you?
It takes very little plutonium to kill you if you breathe it in. Microgram amounts can cause cancer when airborne plutonium is inspired. Some will stay inside the lungs and irradiate the individual over time. Death is not immediate, but is certain. And it usually isn't a very "clean" passing - if that can be said of any form of death. As plutonium isn't metabolized well, little of it would be absorbed if it was eaten, but airborne materials are a primary hazard at manufacturing facilities where this stuff is worked.Plutonium is unstable and is radioactive. It's daughter products, those elements that result from its radioactive decay, are radioactive, too. A little bit of this super-toxic stuff in an individual's lungs will emit radiation, and will continue to do so as the daughter products decay. There are few words to describe how really nasty this stuff is.A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on plutonium.
