No, uranium-235 (U-235) is not stable. It is a radioactive isotope that undergoes radioactive decay, emitting particles and energy in the process.
It is estimated that 1 kilogram of U235 can produce approximately 24,000 MWh of electricity in a nuclear reactor. This amount can vary depending on the efficiency of the reactor and the specific conditions of operation.
Oralloy is an acronym for "Oak Ridge Alloy". Which is an alloy of Uranium 235 and Uranium 238. The U235 is the fissile isotope that is used in fission type nuclear weapons. The actual concentration is classified, but generally U235 is greater than 90%.
Yes, the equilibrium is stable.
The adjective for stability is "stable."
Helium is a stable element.
Element number 92 is Uranium and there are two main isotopes - U235 and U238. In U235 there are 92 protons so there are 235 - 92 = 143 neutrons. In U238 there are thus 146 neutrons

In power reactors the fuel is uranium enriched slightly to about 4 percent U235 (the fissile isotope), whereas for a bomb you need the U235 as high as possible, in the high 90's I believe.
Yes, U233, U235, and U238 are all used as nuclear fuels.
which process & which isotope u mention 1. nuclear reaction U235 & Pu239
The references I have state Oralloy is 93.5% U235. Oralloy (Oak Ridge Alloy) was used in US Uranium atomic bombs as the fissile material. However they also say that any enrichment 20% U235 or higher is fissile and could be used to make a bomb, it would require a higher critical mass to work though. One source I have states that early Soviet Uranium atomic bombs used ~97% U235, but the US felt this level of enrichment to be unnecessary and excessively expensive.
Enough of either U235 or PU239 to form a critical mass and hence a large explosion
The question is asking if U235 a liquid or a gas. It is a solid and does not flow.
Each time a U235 atom decays, it emits 2-3 neutrons. The likelihood that one of these neutrons is captured by another U235 atom INCREASES with more mass. The SHAPE of this mass will also play a role, imagine a thin wire of U235, compared to a sphere, with regards to how likely a chain reaction will occur. Neutron reflection can also help redirect an errant neutron back into the mass so it can react instead. Compression (increase of density) plays a role as well.
The same name with a different atomic mass number. As an example U235 and U238 are two isotopes of Uranium
in order,- Fission, (u235) Fusion, (d-t) Fusion (sun) Antimatter, Zero point energy.
The nucleus of the Uranium-235 (U235) atom participates in the nuclear reaction by absorbing a neutron (n) to form an unstable compound nucleus, which then undergoes fission into Xe134, Sr100, and two neutrons (2n).
