All the isotopes of uranium are unstable.
Natural isotopes of uranium are: 234, 235 and 238.
Nearly all, 99.988%, of tantalum found in nature is stable. The natural radioactive isotope, 180mTa, accounts for 0.012% of it, and is believed to have a very long half life of about 1,200,000,000,000,000 years. Like all elements, tantalum has synthetic radioactive isotopes.
For most practical purposes, lutetium can be regarded as stable, though it is slightly radioactive. 97.41% of lutetium found in nature is stable, and 2.59% is of an isotope with a half life of 37,800,000,000 years. Like all other elements, lutetium has synthetic radioactive isotopes.
The process is called decay, or sometimes nuclear decay. A link can be found below.
He found that uranium is radioactive. Uranium is in the f block. Atomic number of it is 92.
Uranium is a metal, solid and radioactive at room temperature.
99.996% of calcium found in nature is not radioactive. 0.004% of natural calcium is radioactive 46Ca, and there are also trace quantities of radioactive 41Ca found naturally. Like all other elements, calcium has synthetic radioactive isotopes.The calcium you deal with in every day life is not, no. Some isotopes are, but they are not found in natural calcium deposits

I think uranium has the higgest number of electrons of all the naturally found elements. Uranium in its stable state have 92 protons and 92 electons but the thing that makes it radioactive is the number of neutrons (146). Purification of uranium from uranium oxide is really expensive.
Uranium and radium, and a number of others, are natural elements found in the ground, and they are radioactive.
The most useful isotope is uranium 235 which occurs naturally as 0.7 percent uranium as found. Plutonium 239 is also useful but has to be made in a reactor from uranium 238
Phosphorus, iron, and iodine all have at least one isotope that is stable, and any of these would do for the longest half life. In fact, the radioactive isotopes of phosphorus are all synthetic, so radioactive phosphorus is not found in nature.
The most common uranium isotope found in nature is Uranium-238. This particular isotope is mostly used in nuclear weapons and as the fuel supply for nuclear power.
