What is the difference between a hydrogen bomb and an Uranium bomb and which one is more powerful?
Hydrogen bomb gets some of its energy from fusion, uranium or plutonium bomb gets all of it from fission. Either can be more powerful, depending on the design. The most powerful bombs built have all been hydrogen bombs.
Is radium more powerful then uranium?
Radium is not more powerful than uranium. Both radium and uranium are radioactive elements with different properties and uses. Radium is a decay product of uranium and is less commonly found in nature.
How much uranium is usually in a nuclear bomb?
Cca. 50 kg of highly enriched uranium. Now nuclear bombs use plutonium, not uranium.
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.
Is radium less powerful than uranium?
Now radium hasn't practical applications. Uranium has many applications as nuclear fuel and also in nuclear weapons and strong tank armors.
Which is most powerful the hydrogen bomb the atom bomb or the uranium bomb?
The 'uranium bomb' is an A-bomb and is a first generation nuclear weapon. The hydrogen bomb or H-bomb is a 2nd generation nuclear weapon and generally many times more powerful. 'H-bomb' can also refer to 3rd generation nuclear weapons that have an additional mass off uranium to provide further fuel, triggered by the 2nd generation fusion reaction; these are the most powerful. But recent studies show that the H-Bomb has more mass, therefore more energy, and therefore has more energy. So the H-bomb is more powerful.
Is plutonium more powerful then uranium?
Plutonium is more dangerous: the specific activity is greater, the critical mass is smaller, the chemical toxicity is greater.
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.
Is plutonium more powerful than uranium?
Yes, plutonium is generally considered to be more powerful than uranium because it is a more efficient fuel for nuclear reactors and can sustain nuclear chain reactions more easily. Additionally, certain isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear weapons due to their high explosive potential.
What are 2 molecules that contain uranium?
Examples:Oxides: uranium dioxide, uranium trioxide, uranium octaoxideSalts: ammonium diuranate, uranyl nitrate, uranyl acetate, uranium hehxafluoride, uranium chlorideand many others because uranium is a reactive metal.
What are common combinatons with uranium with other elements?
uranyl nitrate, uranium dioxide, uranium octaoxide, uranium hexafluoride, uranyl acetate, uranium tetrachloride, uranium carbide, uranium nitride, uranium tetraiodide, uranium sulfide, ammonium diuranate, etc.
What are uraniums common compounds?
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.
