What else can I help you with?
What makes uranium?
Uranium is an element; it cannot be 'made' as it were. It is similar to iron or oxygen in that respect.Only supernova explosions are powerful enough to actually make uranium or any element heavier than nickel and iron. Some uranium can be made in nuclear breeder reactors or in labs by bombarding thorium samples with neutrons.
Does the isotope occur naturally or is it man-made?
Francium occurs naturally, although extremely rare. It can and is made in labs. Although it is considered a naturally occurring element, there is only about one ounce of it in the Earth's crust at any one time. Scientists reproduce it in labs so they can study it, ect. So little is known about Francium now; if we didn't reproduce it in labs we would know next to nothing about it.
Where is uranium made?
In uranium plants
What material is uranium made from?
Uranium is not made of any material because Uranium is an element and elements are not made of something else.
How were the heavy elements from iron to uranium made?
Up to uranium elements are made by stellar nuclear synthesis; after uranium elements are man made.
Is depleted uranium man made?
Depleted uranium is man made but the isotope 238U is natural.
Is Uranium a man made element?
No, Uranium is naturally occurring. But all elements beyond uranium are man-made.
What is uranium hexafluoride made from?
Uranium hexafluoride is made from uranium dioxide or uranium tetrafluoride by adding fluorine gas. The process involves reacting uranium compound with an excess of fluorine gas under controlled conditions to produce uranium hexafluoride.
Can uranium be made into a wire?
Yes, because uranium is a ductile metal.
What else other than uranium 239 is the atomic bomb made of?
Not uranium 239, but uranium 235 and plutonium 239.
Was uranium made in bombs?
Yes,well and truly it was.In fact,a uranium bomb is one of a rare bomb made.
Is uranium oxide a metal?
Uranium oxide is a compound made up of uranium and oxygen, and is not considered a metal. Uranium itself is a metal, but when combined with oxygen to form uranium oxide, it becomes a ceramic material.
