Uranium is a radioactive metal used as a fuel in nuclear reactors, while krypton is a noble gas commonly used in lighting. Uranium is a heavy element with radioactive isotopes, whereas krypton is a non-reactive gas that is typically found in trace amounts in the Earth's atmosphere.
Uranium is not used in medicine.
To produce uranium
Uranium is not used in the petroleum industry.
No. Uranium is generally used in solid form.
- Enriched uranium is used as explosive in some nuclear weapons. Depleted uranium is used for: - armors - projectiles - ballast
Uranium is not a fossil fuel; uranium is used as nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors.

No, uranium is not used in medicine.
Spent uranium is used for armor piercing rounds. Enriched uranium is used in the production of plutonium that is used in the cores of nuclear weapons.
Pure Uranium is radioactive; thus harmful. Inside a nuclear reactor, atoms get split. When the Uranium atom is split, it releases a huge amount of energy. This energy is called nuclear energy. Also the normal Uranium is not used in reactors. The Uranium that is used is enhanced; it is an isotope of Uranium. Uranium-237 and Uranium-238 are used in nuclear reactors. I hope this answer was useful for you.
The uranium used in the Hiroshima atomic bomb came from the Oak Ridge facility in Tennessee, where it was enriched as part of the Manhattan Project. The uranium used was the isotope uranium-235, which was extracted and purified from natural uranium ore.
