Uranium is a metal. It undergoes many of the reactions common to metals, such as oxidation. Your question isn't very specific, so it's hard to give you a much better answer than that.

How many atoms of U234 in are there in 1000 kg of natural uranium?
113 662.1016 uranium-234 atoms
Do nuclear reactors burn uranium or do they split the atoms?
Nuelceur Reactors amit radiation to the uraninaum that they they decay, spewing out and causing a chain reaction.
What do fission of uranium produce?
Uranium fission creates a chain reaction that initiates a chain reaction that grows exponentially into a massive conversion of the potential energy inside the uranium atom into kinetic energy in the form of an explosion - a nuclear explosion. These are the bombs that ended WW2. Today we can split H atoms, which release significantly more energy.
Why is enrichment necessary when uranium is used as a reactor fuel?
The most common isotope of uranium, 238U, has a poor cross-section (the ability to assimilate neutrons) for slow neutrons. In order to enhance the reaction, we enrich the uranium to 235U, from a natural level of about 0.7% to about 4%. This enhances the ability of the uranium to participate in a fissile reaction, i.e. one that sustains neutrons that fission atoms which creates neutrons, etc.
Two atoms of uranium that differ in their number of neutrons are called?
Uranium isotopes
What is a reaction that occurs when uranium atoms are split?
Nuclear fission
What contributions involving uranium did Meitner make to science?
Hahn, Meitner and Strassmann discovered the nuclear fission of uranium atoms in 1939.
What reaction occurs when uranium atoms are split?
In such a case nuclear fission occurs.
How many uranium atoms are in 6g of pure uranium?
The answer is 15,2.1021 atoms of uranium.
How many uranium atoms are there in 6.2 g of pure uranium?
156,86.1020 atoms of uranium in 6,2 g uranium
What is the definition of chemical evidence?
Material produced by or used in a reaction involving changes in atoms or molecules. :D
How many atoms of uranium are present in 1 nanogram of uranium?
1 nanogram of natural uranium = 2,53.1012 atoms
When were uranium atoms split?
Uranium atoms are split during nuclear fission. Uranium-235 and uranium-233 are fissile with thermal neutrons and uranium-238 is fissile with fast neutrons.
How many atoms of U234 in are there in 1000 kg of natural uranium?
113 662.1016 uranium-234 atoms
Do nuclear reactors burn uranium or do they split the atoms?
Nuelceur Reactors amit radiation to the uraninaum that they they decay, spewing out and causing a chain reaction.
What are the common molecules for uranium?
Uranium (as an element) has atoms, not molecules; uranium compounds are molecules.
What do fission of uranium produce?
Uranium fission creates a chain reaction that initiates a chain reaction that grows exponentially into a massive conversion of the potential energy inside the uranium atom into kinetic energy in the form of an explosion - a nuclear explosion. These are the bombs that ended WW2. Today we can split H atoms, which release significantly more energy.
