Applications of uranium:
- nuclear fuel for nuclear power reactors
- explosive for nuclear weapons
- material for armors and projectiles
- catalyst
- additive for glasses and ceramics (to obtain beautiful green colors)
- toner in Photography
- mordant for textiles
- shielding material (depleted uranium)
- ballast
- and other minor applications
Disadvantages: uranium is toxic and radioactive.
Uranium is not used for the radiations emitted.
Uranium has some advantages compared with fossil fuels:1. Uranium is an alternative to fossil fuels, especially for countries without reserves of coal, petrol, methane.2. Uranium don't contribute to global warming.3. Uranium don't release carbon dioxide.4. In the future uranium can be extracted from the sea water.
1. Uranium is a possible polluting agent of the natural environment.2. Uranium is a toxic and a radioactive chemical element.3. Uranium release radium and radon. 4. Radioactive wastes are dangerous and need to be isolated.If working responsibly most of the disadvantages call very limited. And are the major advantages of using uranium especially as nuclear fuel..
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.
The percentage of uranium in uranium dioxide is 88,149.
Uranium is toxic and radioactive (also the compounds of uranium).
Uranium hasn't medical uses.
Uranium is not used for the radiations emitted.
it gets you uranium, if you have uses for uranium. beyond that i am not sure exactly what kind of answer you were looking for. there are several hundred possible uses for uranium, most of them totally non-nuclear.
It could be used with light water reactors.
Advantages: - Uranium is a very useful metal with many applications. - Uranium is the most important source of dollars for the Australian population. Disadvantages: - Uranium is toxic and radioactive. Accidents can release uranium, radium, radon into soils, waters and atmosphere.

Advantages of uranium as a fuel include high energy density, which means it can produce a large amount of energy from a small amount of material. It is also a reliable and proven technology for generating electricity. However, disadvantages include the risk of nuclear accidents, the generation of radioactive waste, and the potential for nuclear proliferation.
